groundwater quality management is the most important issue in many arid and semi-arid countries, including iran.artificial neural network (ann) has an extensive range of applications in water resources management. in this study,artificial neural network was developed using matlab r2013 software package, and cl, ec, so4 and no3 qualitativeparameters were estimated and compared with the measured ...

this paper presents a new model for predicting the compressive strength of steel-confined concrete on circular concrete filled steel tube (ccfst) stub columns under axial loading condition based on artificial neural networks (anns) by using a large wide of experimental investigations. the input parameters were selected based on past studies such as outer diameter of column, compressive strength...

To estimate the Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC), indirect manner used of Pedotransfer Functions (PTFs). CEC is one of the important soil fertility factors, and not measured directly because it is costly and time consuming. Thus, used from regression equations between easily and non-easily soil properties. The purpose of this research, is develop the PTFs for CEC, with use of easily available soi...

accurate prediction of river flow is one of the most important factors in surface water recourses management especially during floods and drought periods. in fact deriving a proper method for flow forecasting is an important challenge in water resources management and engineering. although, during recent decades, some black box models based on artificial neural networks (ann), have been develop...

A total of 1099 data points consisting of alcohol-alcohol, alcohol-alkane, alkane-alkane, alcohol-amine and acid-acid binary solutions were collected from scientific literature to develop an appropriate artificial neural network (ANN) model. Temperature, molecular weight of the pure components, mole fraction of one component and the structural groups of the components were used as input paramet...

In this paper, vapor pressure for pure compounds is estimated using the Artificial Neural Networks and a simple Group Contribution Method (ANN–GCM). For model comprehensiveness, materials were chosen from various families. Most of materials are from 12 families. Vapor pressure data of 100 compounds is used to train, validate and test the ANN-GCM model. Va...

in this study artificial neural network (ann) was used for modeling of wastewater treatment plants with using. for this purpose, the base of the quality parameters measured at the plant input, plant output value was predicted. neural network input data, including temperature (t), biochemical oxygen demand (bod), chemical oxygen demand (cod), total suspended solids (tss), total solids (ts) and p...
