based on langelier, corrosion index of water in the distribution system was balanced. shadegan is a city and the capital of shadegan county in khuzestan province, iran. it has an area of 3197 m2 and located 84 km south of ahvaz. water distribution system serves 70,000 people in the city and the total consumed drinking water is 28525 m3per day (3,4).this descriptive, cross sectional study examin...

in arid, semiarid, and mediterranean climates, particularly in west asia and north africa, farmers face limited water resources and must develop irrigation management methods to increase crop production while reducing water use. this study examined methods to reduce irrigation water loss and increase maize water productivity at safiabad agricultural research center in dezful, iran in 2007 and 2...

to study the effect of planting pattern and water quantity on potato yields under drip irrigation, this research was conducted using a split plot based on a randomized complete block design with four replications in three regions (mashhad, ardebil and damavand, iran) during 2003-2004. nine treatments were used. the main-plots were three levels of irrigation: 100%(i1), 80%(i2), and 60%(i3) of cr...

When recorded on an horizontal array, the acoustic intensity of a broadband source presents a striation pattern due to interferences between modes. This pattern is a robust feature of waveguide propagation and is described by a scalar parameter called waveguide invariant. In classical shallow water configurations, this invariant is close to 1 and has been used to perform source localization or ...

We herein report on the effect that water molecules, present as impurities, in the vicinity of an ionic liquid model structure, may induce on the Lewis acidity/basicity patterns normally observed in these materials. Depending on the position and orientation of water, the Lewis acidity/basicity pattern changes from "normal distribution" (i.e., the basicity located at the anion moiety and the aci...

The water-cut rises quickly and the remaining oil distribution is complex when ultra-low permeability reservoir enters high water cut stage. comprehensive use of engineering, dynamic monitoring, numerical simulation, core experiments other methods, this paper systematically summarizes three types water-driving law characteristics oil, which are pore-fracture flow, flow fracture flow. It conside...

a novel approach to determine optimal sampling locations under parameter uncertainty in a water distribution system (wds) for the purpose of its hydraulic model calibration is presented. the problem is formulated as a multi-objective optimisation problem under calibration parameter uncertainty. the objectives are to maximise the calibrated model accuracy and to minimise the number of sampling d...
