Leakage in water distribution pipes is a major problem faced by the water industry. Water utilities often employ traditional audit methods to estimate water lost as leakage. As a result demand for additional water sources ...

Sediment transport is a worldwide environmental problem that degrades soil productivity, water quality, causes sedimentation to the reservoirs and increases the probability of floods. Gefersa reservoir, one of the surface ...

The poor quality of drinking water leads to water related diseases. The study was carried out to determine drinking water quality supply schemes of rural Ada‟a Woreda at the source and point of use by assessing current ...

In planning and designing a water supply planning system, the key emphasis for meeting the growing water demand in Addis Ababa and elsewhere in the world is often focused on the endless desire to search for new resources ...

The main objective of this thesis is to assess the potential of rain water harvesting practice to solve problems of both increasing water demand and storm water in Addis Ababa city. The research is carried out based on ...

The effect of topography on rainfall variability in the East Africa highlands is less studied rainfall processes. 37 rain gauges and 5 complete weather sensors along four transects in the complex terrain region of the Blue ...

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of high – resolution satellite rainfall products (TMPA 3B42RT, 3B42V6, and 3B42V7) under sparse ground based data and complex topography medium sized watershed ...

The computation of runoff usually consists of applying a stage- discharge relation to daily gage heights to determine mean daily discharges. However, for this particular study a hydrologic model, HEC-HMS is applied to ...

Dynamic loads induced by earthquakes are often major factors in the design of earth dams. Earthquake induced stresses are major factors in determining the angles of the dam slopes and significantly influence the selection ...

In this study, HEC-ResSim (Hydrologic Engineering Center-Reservoir System Simulation) model was used to simulate water use and operation of existing, ongoing and planned hydraulic infrastructures, and irrigation schemes ...
