The peak period of an energy-generating wave is one of the most important parameters that describe the spectral shape of the oceanic wave, as this indicates the duration for which the waves prevail with respect to their ...

This letter presents an alternative approach for investigating the teleconnections of summer monsoon rainfall in the state of Kerala, India, with four prominent climatic oscillations in multiple time scales based on ...

Liquefaction study by in-situ tests like SPT and CPT are very complicated and time consuming. Cyclic Resistance Ratio (CRR) of a soil is controlled by various properties of the soil. Artificial intelligence techniques ...

Rapid industrialization of the city of Coimbatore in the recent past has imposed stress on groundwater resources, resulting in quantity depletion and quality deterioration. The present study aimed at evaluating the ...

This work aims to investigate the effect of chitosan powders on the mechanical, morphological and thermal behaviour of nitrile rubber (NBR). The chitosan content has been varied between 0 and 15 phr. NBR was initially ...

Rainfall intensity or depth estimates are vital input for hydrologic and hydraulic models used in designing drainage infrastructures. Unfortunately, these estimates are suscepti ble to diferent sources of uncertainties ...

Liveability is considered as a guiding principle that shapes the social, economic, physical and biological urban environment of any city. Liveability is associated with dimensions like safety, climate, infrastructure, ...

The Region of Kuttanad in the State of Kerala, India, is known as the rice bowl of Kerala. The region is famous for the black clayey silts and silty clays that it possess, which makes them quite suitable for agriculture. ...
