Optimization of a Laboratory Rainfall Simulator to Be Representative of Natural Rainfall
The importance of understanding the effects of rainfall on different materials over time makes it essential to carry out controlled tests to reduce analysis time. Rainfall simulators have been in use for decades and have been implemented as technology and knowledge of the physical behavior of water advanced.

Measurement and computation of kinetic energy of simulated rainfall in comparison with natural rainfall [PDF]
Rainfall characteristics such as total amount and rainfall intensity (I) are important inputs in calculating the kinetic energy (KE) of rainfall. Although KE is a crucial indicator of the raindrop potential to disrupt soil aggregates, it is not a ...

Hydrological Modelling Using a Rainfall Simulator over an Experimental Hillslope Plot
Hydrological processes are complex to compute in hilly areas when compared to plain areas. The governing processes behind runoff generation on hillslopes are subsurface storm flow, saturation excess flow, overland flow, return flow and pipe storage.

Evaluation of Rainfall Interception by Vegetation Using a Rainfall Simulator [PDF]
Interception by vegetation is one of the main variables controlling hydrological and geo-environmental problems such as erosion, landslides and floods. Interception, along with precipitation and evapotranspiration, is required for the modeling of infiltration, percolation and runoff.
