Normally A increases with Q and S because the higher the water level is the higher the discharge capacity becomes. The factor is therefore called Aq instead of A. The non-linear reservoir has no usable unit hydrograph. During periods without rainfall or recharge, i.e. when R = 0, the runoff equation reduces to Q2 = Q1 exp { − Aq (T2 − T1 ...
A unit hydrograph (UH) is the hypothetical unit response of a watershed (in terms of runoff volume and timing) to a unit input of rainfall. It can be defined as the direct runoff hydrograph (DRH) resulting from one unit (e.g., one cm or one inch) of effective rainfall occurring uniformly over that watershed at a uniform rate over a unit period ...
Surface runoff is defined as precipitation (rain, snow, sleet, or hail [5]) that reaches a surface stream without ever passing below the soil surface. [6] It is distinct from direct runoff, which is runoff that reaches surface streams immediately after rainfall or melting snowfall and excludes runoff generated by the melting of snowpack or ...

Rainflow counting identifies the closed cycles in a stress-strain curve. The rainflow-counting algorithm is used in calculating the fatigue life of a component in order to convert a loading sequence of varying stress into a set of constant amplitude stress reversals with equivalent fatigue damage.
A record-setting 24 hours of rain in North Texas has left much of the state dealing with deadly flooding. Record-setting rainfall in Texas claims life, requires rescues and forces evacuations Skip ...
With temperatures dipping into the 40s in North Texas during Thanksgiving week, and winter a month away, you may be wondering how various components of your home may be affected and how to protect ...
A rainwater catchment or collection (also known as "rainwater harvesting") system can yield 1,000 litres (260 US gal) of water from 1 cm (0.4 in) of rain on a 100 m 2 (1,100 sq ft) roof. Rainwater tanks are installed to make use of rain water for later use, reduce mains water use for economic or environmental reasons, and aid self-sufficiency.
