A comparative study of optimization techniques for identifying soil parameters in
geotechnical engineering was first presented. The identification methodology with its 3 main …

Different simulation models were used to evaluate drainage and nitrogen fertilizer
movement to groundwater. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the HYDRUS-1D …

Adding refinement and accuracy to constitutive models of soil results in the introduction of
complexities along with more model parameters. These parameters (such as hardening …

Inverse analysis using an optimization method based on a genetic algorithm (GA) is a useful
tool for obtaining soil parameters in geotechnical fields. However, the performance of the …

In this research, the model of SWCT (soil water content and temperature) was developed for
simulation of fluxes of soil water (liquid water and water vapor) and heat. The governing …

The main objective of this article is to describe the drying process of ceramic roof tiles,
shaped from red clay, using diffusion models. Samples of the product with initial moisture …

World recent concerns about the shortage of water resources and contamination of
groundwater supplies have motivated scientists seeking for more efficient techniques in …

The model MSM (Maize Simulation Model) was modified and validated, using data on furrow
irrigation in Fars province in Iran during 2003 and 2004. The planted cultivar was SC704 …

A major step in designing a subsurface drainage system is calculation of drainpipe spacing.
Nearly, all unsteady-state drainpipe-spacing equations use ratio of hydraulic conductivity (K …

In this research, the EISHP (Estimation of Individual Soil Hydraulic Parameters) model was
developed for estimation of the individual soil hydraulic parameters of van Genuchten's …
