Model is a system, by whose operation; the characteristics of other similar systems can be ascertained. Experimental observation made on a model bear a definite relationship with prototype. So, the model analysis or modeling is actually an experimental method of finding solution of complex flow problems like surface water modeling, sub-surface water modeling etc. Many flow situations are not amenable to theoretical analysis. Modeling is a valuable means of obtaining better understanding of particular situation. Inspired by the functioning of the brain and biological nervous system, Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) has been applied to various hydrological problems in last two decades. In this study, two ANN models using feed forward – back propagation network are developed to correlate a relationship between rainfall and runoff on monthly and weekly basis for Kali river catchment up to Supa dam in Uttara Kannada District of Karnataka State, India. The developed two models are compared and evaluated using standard statistical parameters to know strength and weaknesses. This performance can be further refined by incorporating more input parameters of catchment properties like soil moisture index; land use and land cover details etc.
APPLICATION OF GENE EXPRESSION PROGRAMMING IN FLOOD FREQUENCY ANALYSISMohd Danish
This document discusses different methods for flood frequency analysis, including Gumbel's method, artificial neural networks (ANN), and gene expression programming (GEP). Gumbel's method is widely used in India to predict flood peaks. ANN and GEP are artificial intelligence techniques that have been applied to hydraulic engineering problems in recent decades. The document focuses on applying GEP to flood frequency analysis of the Ganga River at Hardwar, India. GEP is implemented to derive a relationship between peak flood discharge and return period. The results of GEP are promising and suggest it is a useful alternative to more conventional flood frequency analysis methods.
Editorial – October 2012 – The NEMO European Ocean Modeling platform for research and operational applications
Greetings all,
This issue is dedicated to NEMO http://www.nemo-ocean.eu/ which is the European Modeling platform for ocean research and operational applications. NEMO (Nucleus for European Modeling of the Ocean) is a software for nu-merical simulation of the ocean. NEMO is available under free license and improves in order to stay as near as possible to technical needs and breakthroughs of research and operational projects. NEMO is in use in a wide variety of applications which main objectives are oceanographic research, operational forecasts of the ocean and seasonal weather forecasts or climate change studies. The NEMO ocean platform is for example widely used in the framework of the Myocean project. Its three main components are: the ―blue ocean‖ NEMO-OPA which simu-lates the dynamics, the ―white ocean‖ NEMO-LIM which simulates the sea-ice and the ―green ocean‖ NEMO-TOP which simulates the biogeochemistry. Some other components allow data assimilation or grid nesting. NEMO also includes interfaces for ocean-atmosphere coupled configurations using the OASIS coupler. A number of ―reference configurations‖ are also available to set up and validate implementations, so as pre- and post-processing tools. All of NEMO and its documentation are available on the NEMO website http://www.nemo-ocean.eu/.
The two first papers of the present newsletter are written by Levy et al. and are presenting the NEMO ocean code: What does NEMO produces? What are the applications? Its limitations as well as the NEMO Consortium and its organization.
Then, the next paper by Gehlen et al. is discussing the coupled physical-biogeochemical ocean modeling using NEMO components. Physical components of the NEMO system have been used with success in biogeochemical research coupled to four biogeochemical models of varying complexity: PISCES (provided with the passive tracer module TOP), MEDUSA, BFM/PELAGOS and HadOCC.
Next paper by Bouttier et al. is developing the progress toward a data assimilation system for NEMO and discuss-es the first achievement steps that have been carried out to set up a data assimilation system associated to NEMO. This data assimilation system is schematically made of three subcomponents: Interface Components, Built-in Components and External Components.

Prediction of scour depth at bridge abutments in cohesive bed using gene expr...Mohd Danish
The scour modelling in cohesive beds is relatively more complex than that in sandy beds and
thus there is limited number of studies available on local scour at bridge abutments on cohesive
sediment. Recently, a good progress has been made in the development of data-driven techniques
based on artificial intelligence (AI). It has been reported that AI-based inductive modelling
techniques are frequently used to model complex process due to their powerful and non-linear model
structures and their increased capabilities to capture the cause and effect relationship of such
complex processes. Gene Expression Programming (GEP) is one of the AI techniques that have
emerged as a powerful tool in modelling complex phenomenon into simpler chromosomal
architecture. This technique has been proved to be more accurate and much simpler than other AI
tools. In the present study, an attempt has been made to implement GEP for the development of
scour depth prediction model at bridge abutments in cohesive sediments using laboratory data
available in literature. The present study reveals that the performance of GEP is better than nonlinear
regression model for the prediction of scour depth at abutments in cohesive beds.

It finds that an artificial neural network using multilayer perceptron with water discharge, accumulated discharge, and accumulated rainfall as inputs achieved an R2 value of 0.88 for estimating suspended sediment, outperforming a sediment rating curve model which achieved an R2 of 0.846. However, the artificial neural network was not as accurate at estimating peak sediment values. Overall, the study found artificial neural networks to be an acceptable method for suspended sediment estimation in this basin, though they have limitations in predicting peaks.

EFFICACY OF NEURAL NETWORK IN RAINFALL-RUNOFF MODELLING OF BAGMATI RIVER BASINIAEME Publication
In this paper, rainfall-runoff model of Bagmati river basin has been developed
using the ANN Technique. Three-layered fced forward network structure with back
propagation algorithm was used to train the ANN model. Different combinations of
rainfall and runoff were considered as input to the network and trained by BP
algorithm with different error tolerance, learning parameter, number of cycles and
number of hidden layers. The sensitivity of the prediction accuracy to the number of
hidden layer neurons in a back error propagation algorithm was used for the study.
The monthly rainfall and runoff data from 2000 to 2009 of Bagmati river basin has
been considered for the development of ANN model. Performance evaluation of the
model has been done by using statistical parameters. Three sets of data have been
used to make several combination of year keeping in view the highest peaks of
hydrographs. First set of data used was from 2000 to 2006 for the calibration and
from 2007 to 2009 for validation. The second set of data was from 2004 to 2009 for
calibration and from 2000 to 2003 for validation. The Third set of data was from 2000
to 2009 for calibration and from 2007 to 2009 for validation. It was found that the
third set of data gave better result than other two sets of data. The study demonstrates
the applicability of ANN approach in developing effective non-linear models of
Rainfall-Runoff process without the need to explicitly representing the internal
hydraulic structure of the watershed
The document compares the use of artificial neural networks (ANNs) and model trees (MTs) for rainfall-runoff modelling. It tests these techniques on a European catchment to predict runoff 1, 3, and 6 hours ahead. The results show that both ANNs and MTs produced excellent results for 1-hour ahead prediction, acceptable results for 3-hour prediction, and conditional acceptable results for 6-hour prediction. While the performance of ANNs and MTs was similar for 1-hour predictions, ANNs performed slightly better for longer lead times. However, MTs have the advantage of producing more understandable and adjustable models of varying complexity and accuracy.

Multi-task learning using non-linear autoregressive models and recurrent neur...IJECEIAES
Tide level forecasting plays an important role in environmental management and development. Current tide level forecasting methods are usually implemented for solving single task problems, that is, a model built based on the tide level data at an individual location is only used to forecast tide level of the same location but is not used for tide forecasting at another location. This study proposes a new method for tide level prediction at multiple locations simultaneously. The method combines nonlinear autoregressive moving average with exogenous inputs (NARMAX) model and recurrent neural networks (RNNs), and incorporates them into a multi-task learning (MTL) framework. Experiments are designed and performed to compare single task learning (STL) and MTL with and without using non-linear autoregressive models. Three different RNN variants, namely, long short- term memory (LSTM), gated recurrent unit (GRU) and bidirectional LSTM (BiLSTM) are employed together with non-linear autoregressive models. A case study on tide level forecasting at many different geographical locations (5 to 11 locations) is conducted. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed architectures outperform the classical single-task prediction methods.
Turbidity is a measure of water quality. Excessive turbidity poses a threat to health and causes pollution. Most of the available mathematical models of water treatment plants do not capture turbidity. A reliable model is essential for effective removal of turbidity in the water treatment plant. This paper presents a comparison of Hammerstein Wiener and neural network technique for estimating of turbidity in water treatment plant. The models were validated using an experimental data from Tamburawa water treatment plant in Kano, Nigeria. Simulation results demonstrated that the neural network model outperformed the Hammerstein-Wiener model in estimating the turbidity. The neural network model may serve as a valuable tool for predicting the turbidity in the plant.

This paper introduces the Artifi cial Neural Networks (ANN) function to model probabilistic dependencies, in supervised classification tasks for discrimination between earthquakes and explosions problems. ANNs are regarded as the discriminating tools to classify the natural seismic events (earthquakes) from the artifi cial ones (Man-made explosions) based on the seismic signals recorded at regional distances. The bulk of our novel is to improve the obtained numerical results using this advance technique. The ANNs, by testing the different types of seismic features, showed the potential application of this method to discriminate the classes. During the above study, we found out that the Neural Networks have been used in a fully innovative manner in this work. Here the ARMA coefficients filters detects
the type of the source whenever a natural or artificial source changes the nature of the background noise of the seismograms. During the above study, we found out that this algorithm is sometimes capable to alarm the further natural seismological events just a little before the onset.
Calculation of solar radiation by using regression methodsmehmet şahin
Abstract. In this study, solar radiation was estimated at 53 location over Turkey with
varying climatic conditions using the Linear, Ridge, Lasso, Smoother, Partial least, KNN
and Gaussian process regression methods. The data of 2002 and 2003 years were used to
obtain regression coefficients of relevant methods. The coefficients were obtained based on
the input parameters. Input parameters were month, altitude, latitude, longitude and landsurface
temperature (LST).The values for LST were obtained from the data of the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer
(NOAA-AVHRR) satellite. Solar radiation was calculated using obtained coefficients in
regression methods for 2004 year. The results were compared statistically. The most
successful method was Gaussian process regression method. The most unsuccessful method
was lasso regression method. While means bias error (MBE) value of Gaussian process
regression method was 0,274 MJ/m2, root mean square error (RMSE) value of method was
calculated as 2,260 MJ/m2. The correlation coefficient of related method was calculated as
0,941. Statistical results are consistent with the literature. Used the Gaussian process
regression method is recommended for other studies.

STUDY THE EFFECT OF RESPONSE REDUCTION FACTOR ON RC FRAMED STRUCTUREIRJET Journal
This study examines the effect of response reduction factors (R factors) on reinforced concrete (RC) framed structures through nonlinear dynamic analysis. Three RC frame models with varying heights (4, 8, and 12 stories) were analyzed in ETABS software under different R factors ranging from 1 to 5. The results showed that displacement increased as the R factor decreased, indicating less linear behavior for lower R factors. Drift also decreased proportionally with increasing R factors from 1 to 5. Shear forces in the frames decreased with higher R factors. In general, R factors of 3 to 5 produced more satisfactory performance with less displacement and drift. The displacement variations between different building heights were consistent at different R factors. This study evaluated how R factors influence

Multi-task learning using non-linear autoregressive models and recurrent neur...IJECEIAES
Tide level forecasting plays an important role in environmental management and development. Current tide level forecasting methods are usually implemented for solving single task problems, that is, a model built based on the tide level data at an individual location is only used to forecast tide level of the same location but is not used for tide forecasting at another location. This study proposes a new method for tide level prediction at multiple locations simultaneously. The method combines nonlinear autoregressive moving average with exogenous inputs (NARMAX) model and recurrent neural networks (RNNs), and incorporates them into a multi-task learning (MTL) framework. Experiments are designed and performed to compare single task learning (STL) and MTL with and without using non-linear autoregressive models. Three different RNN variants, namely, long short- term memory (LSTM), gated recurrent unit (GRU) and bidirectional LSTM (BiLSTM) are employed together with non-linear autoregressive models. A case study on tide level forecasting at many different geographical locations (5 to 11 locations) is conducted. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed architectures outperform the classical single-task prediction methods.
Turbidity is a measure of water quality. Excessive turbidity poses a threat to health and causes pollution. Most of the available mathematical models of water treatment plants do not capture turbidity. A reliable model is essential for effective removal of turbidity in the water treatment plant. This paper presents a comparison of Hammerstein Wiener and neural network technique for estimating of turbidity in water treatment plant. The models were validated using an experimental data from Tamburawa water treatment plant in Kano, Nigeria. Simulation results demonstrated that the neural network model outperformed the Hammerstein-Wiener model in estimating the turbidity. The neural network model may serve as a valuable tool for predicting the turbidity in the plant.

This paper introduces the Artifi cial Neural Networks (ANN) function to model probabilistic dependencies, in supervised classification tasks for discrimination between earthquakes and explosions problems. ANNs are regarded as the discriminating tools to classify the natural seismic events (earthquakes) from the artifi cial ones (Man-made explosions) based on the seismic signals recorded at regional distances. The bulk of our novel is to improve the obtained numerical results using this advance technique. The ANNs, by testing the different types of seismic features, showed the potential application of this method to discriminate the classes. During the above study, we found out that the Neural Networks have been used in a fully innovative manner in this work. Here the ARMA coefficients filters detects
the type of the source whenever a natural or artificial source changes the nature of the background noise of the seismograms. During the above study, we found out that this algorithm is sometimes capable to alarm the further natural seismological events just a little before the onset.

STUDY THE EFFECT OF RESPONSE REDUCTION FACTOR ON RC FRAMED STRUCTUREIRJET Journal
This study examines the effect of response reduction factors (R factors) on reinforced concrete (RC) framed structures through nonlinear dynamic analysis. Three RC frame models with varying heights (4, 8, and 12 stories) were analyzed in ETABS software under different R factors ranging from 1 to 5. The results showed that displacement increased as the R factor decreased, indicating less linear behavior for lower R factors. Drift also decreased proportionally with increasing R factors from 1 to 5. Shear forces in the frames decreased with higher R factors. In general, R factors of 3 to 5 produced more satisfactory performance with less displacement and drift. The displacement variations between different building heights were consistent at different R factors. This study evaluated how R factors influence
