Book Towards Improved Design of Diversion Structures in Spate Irrigation

Download or read book Towards Improved Design of Diversion Structures in Spate Irrigation written by Hintsa Libsekal Gebremariam and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2015-02-27 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last 15 years, traditional spate irrigation system was modernizing by different governmental and non-governmental projects. None of this modernized schemes were achieved their objectives and most of these was failed due to siltation and less spate flow. The main problem was adoption of designs parameter from normal irrigation system. Spate irrigation system is unique and different from other irrigation systems and needs special attention to develop appropriate design standards. This book, therefore, provides new design alternatives of spate irrigation to minimize sedimentation hazards and increase spate flow to the schemes. After detailed study of design development and their limitations four alternatives of design parameters were developed. These alternatives were analyzed using a software model of Delft3D and the best design alternative was recommended to implement on ground. The study should help shed some light on this new and exciting design standard, and should be especially useful to professionals and experts in the field spate irrigation engineering, or anyone else who may be wants to know about characteristics and challenges of spate irrigation systems.

Book Design of Diversion Weirs

Download or read book Design of Diversion Weirs written by Rozgar Baban and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Design of Diversion Weirs Small Scale Irrigation in Hot Climates Rozgar Baban In most developing countries, it is now realised that the most important factor in the success of the agricultural sector is the sustainability of irrigation projects. Diversion weirs are the most important components of these projects. The aim of this book is to teach step by step how to design diversion weirs. It encompasses all technical subjects required: site investigation, hydrological, hydraulic and structural analysis. Many numerical examples show how to relate engineering theories to applications. Cover illustration A diversion weir in Tanzania constructed by the farmers with technical assistance from the government.

Book Irrigation Systems

Download or read book Irrigation Systems written by Adrian Laycock and published by CABI. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of all the confrontations man has engineered with nature, irrigation systems have had the most widespread and far-reaching impact on the natural environment. Over a quarter of a billion hectares of the planet are irrigated and entire countries depend on irrigation for their survival and existence. Considering the importance of irrigation schemes, it is unfortunate that until recently the technology and principles of design applied to their construction has hardly changed in 4,000 years. Modern thinking on irrigation engineering has benefited from a cross-fertilization of ideas from many other fields including social sciences, control theory, political economics and agriculture. However, these influences have been largely ignored by irrigation engineers.Drawing on almost 40 years of experience of irrigation in the developing world, Laycock introduces new ideas on the design of irrigation systems and combines important issues from the disciplines of social conflict, management, and political thinking.

Book Modernisation Strategy for National Irrigation Systems in the Philippines

Download or read book Modernisation Strategy for National Irrigation Systems in the Philippines written by Mona Liza F. Delos Reyes and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-07-12 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents documentary evidence of the insufficiency of rehabilitation works to close the gap between the irrigation service and actual area irrigated of publicly funded national irrigation systems in the Philippines. It outlines a methodology for formulating a modernisation plan for national irrigation systems with focus on the mostly ungauged, medium to small canal irrigation systems. The proposed methodology adaptively modified some known modernisation concepts and techniques and integrated them in a more holistic framework in the context of changing weather patterns and river flow regimes. It includes in-depth review of rehabilitation works; system diagnosis; revalidation of design assumptions on percolation and water supply; characterisation of system management, irrigation service and demand; and drawing up of options and a vision for the modernised irrigation systems. Central to the proposed modernisation strategy is the logical coherence among the design of physical structures, system operation and water supply so that improvements of irrigation service are possible. The book discusses the development of the proposed methodology and demonstrates its utility in two case study irrigation systems.
