  2. Drainage equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drainage_equation

    A drainage equation is an equation describing the relation between depth and spacing of parallel subsurface drains, depth of the watertable, depth and hydraulic conductivity of the soils. It is used in drainage design. Parameters in Hooghoudt's drainage equation. A well known steady-state drainage

  3. Drainage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drainage

    Drainage options for the construction industry include: Point drainage, which intercepts water at gullies (points). Gullies connect to drainage pipes beneath the ground surface, so deep excavation is required to facilitate this system. Support for deep trenches is required in the shape of planking, strutting or shoring.

  4. Drainage density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drainage_density

    According to Montgomery and Dietrich’s equation, drainage density is a function of vertical hydraulic conductivity. Coarse-grained sediment like sand would have a higher hydraulic conductivity and are predicted by the equation to form a relatively higher drainage density system than a system formed by finer silt with a lower hydraulic ...

  5. Hydrological transport model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrological_transport_model

    River in Madagascar relatively free of sediment load. An hydrological transport model is a mathematical model used to simulate the flow of rivers, streams, groundwater movement or drainage front displacement, and calculate water quality parameters.

  6. Arroyo (watercourse) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arroyo_(watercourse)

    The Doña Ana County Flood Commission in the U.S. state of New Mexico defines an arroyo as "a watercourse that conducts an intermittent or ephemeral flow, providing primary drainage for an area of land of 40 acres (160,000 m 2) or larger; or a watercourse which would be expected to flow in excess of one hundred cubic feet per second as the result of a 100 year storm event."

  7. Leaching model (soil) - Wikipedia

    The downward limb of the leaching curves, as in figure 3, can be described with the leaching equation: [1] Ct = Ci + (Co - Ci) exp (-E L .T.Qp/Ws) where C = salt concentration, Ct = C in the soil at time T, Co = C in the soil at time T=0, Ci = C of the irrigation water, E L = leaching efficiency, Qp = average percolation rate through the soil ...

  9. Watertable control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watertable_control

    In geotechnical engineering, watertable control is the practice of controlling the height of the water table by drainage.Its main applications are in agricultural land (to improve the crop yield using agricultural drainage systems) and in cities to manage the extensive underground infrastructure that includes the foundations of large buildings, underground transit systems, and extensive ...
