Uncontrolled sediment deposition in drainage and sewer systems raises unexpected maintenance expenditures.To this end,implementation of an accurate model relying on effective parameters involved is a reliable benchmar...
The existing incipient sediment motion models typically apply conventional regression methods considering either velocity or shear stress.In the current study,incipient sediment motion is analyzed through a simultaneo...
Mitigation of sediment deposition in lined open channels is an essential issue in hydraulic engineering practice.Hence,the limiting velocity should be determined to keep the channel bottom clean from sediment deposits...
One of the important issues in water transport and sewer systems is determining the flow resistance and roughness coefficient.An accurate estimation of the roughness coefficient is a substantial issue in the design an...
Sediment transport is a complex phenomenon due to the nonlinearity and uncertainties of the process.The present study applies Gene Expression Programming(GEP) to develop bedload transport models in sewer pipes. In thi...
