Variational analysis of landscape elevation and drainage networks [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2020
Landscapes evolve towards surfaces with complex networks of channels and ridges in response to climatic and tectonic forcing. Here, we analyse variational principles giving rise to minimalist models of landscape evolution as a system of partial differential equations that capture the essential dynamics of sediment and water balances.

Efficient Priority-Flood depression filling in raster digital elevation models

open access: yesInternational Journal of Digital Earth, 2019
Depressions in raster digital elevation models (DEM) present a challenge for extracting hydrological networks. They are commonly filled before subsequent algorithms are further applied.

Geomorphology of the Sowie Mountains (Sudetes, SW Poland) – Landform patterns and anthropogenic impact

open access: yesGeographia Polonica, 2023
The Sowie Mountains in the central part of the Sudetes range are an under-researched area in terms of geomorphology, despite their potential representativeness for a large number of terrains within the Bohemian Massif, built of metamorphic bedrock. Apart

Influência da acurácia de completude na delimitação de áreas de preservação permanente

open access: yesConfins, 2018
Since 1934 with the "Protective Forests" until 2012 with the "Permanent Preservation Areas", the Brazilian Forest Code foresees the creation of areas destined to the preservation of natural resources.

A new method of drainage network extraction using SAR radar images: a case study of Djanet (Algeria)

open access: yesJournal of Taibah University for Science, 2021
An oriented, connected, acyclic graph can be used to represent a hydraulic network. We can consider the network as a set of arcs and nodes. Our research work entails extracting a drainage network from satellite images by preprocessing the data to have ...

Research on Stray Current Distribution in a Multitrain Subway System using Finite Element Modeling

open access: yesInternational Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2021
Stray current modeling analysis is an important method to study the leakage and distribution of stray current. To study the stray current distribution law under the combined influence of multiple trains in the up and down subway section, this paper takes

An Innovative Approach for Drainage Network Sizing [PDF]

open access: yesWater, 2015
In this paper, a procedure for the optimal design of rural drainage networks is presented and demonstrated. The suggested approach, exploring the potentialities offered by heuristic methods for the solution of complex optimization problems, is based on the use of a Genetic Algorithm (GA), coupled with a steady and uniform flow hydraulic module.

A Drainage Network with Dependence and the Brownian Web

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Physics, 2022
We study a system of coalescing random walks on the integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$ in which the walk is oriented in the $d$-th direction and follows certain specified rules. We first study the geometry of the paths and show that, almost surely, the paths from a graph consisting of just one tree for dimentions $d=2,3$ and infinitely many disjoint ...

Prevention of flash floods in the town of Kokrajhar through efficient drainage network design [PDF]

open access: yesThe Holistic Approach to Environment
Flash floods are common in the town of Kokrajhar in north-eastern Indian state of Assam. Many areas in the town of Kokrajhar are submerged in water almost every year due to floods during rainy season.

Bifurcation dynamics of natural drainage networks [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2013
As water erodes a landscape, streams form and channellize the surficial flow. In time, streams become highly ramified networks that can extend over a continent. Here, we combine physical reasoning, mathematical analysis and field observations to understand a basic feature of network growth: the bifurcation of a growing stream.
