Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDETECTION OF FLOOD ATTACKS IN DTN USING RATE LIMITER TECHNIQUEC. Balamurugan, M. Viswanathan, T. Abhishek Kumar, G. S. RajFlood attacks means a network becomes so weighed down with packets, caused by the attackers. It prevents packets being sent/received between the nodes in the network. There are many methods adopted to prevent flood attacks in other networks, but none has been installed successfully for DTN’s. Disruption tolerant network is a network, developed in such a manner that intermittent communication … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 19 Feb 2014 · 6,980 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIDENTIFICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF EXTREME RAINFALLS DISTRIBUTION IN MALANG RESIDENCEAmran, Iriawan Nur, Subiono, IrhamahExtreme rainfalls often occur everywhere just in a moment, very difficult to be anticipated and produce very detrimental impact to the environment and human society. Floods and landslides are influenced by high variability of extreme rainfalls, especially in the watershed area for floods and the hills as well as mountains for landslides, such as in Malang Residence, East Java, Indonesia … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 30 Nov 2013 · 6,768 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSoft Path Water Management in Dry and arid Regions of the Arabian Peninsula by Rainwater HarvestingM. T. Amin, A. A. Alazba, U. ManzoorSaudi Arabia has limited renewable water resources and the groundwater is the main source of water in Saudi Arabia which. With an arid climate, it receives about 50-100 mm/year of rainfall in Central, Eastern and Northern regions. There are few studies investigating the future regional climate change and some has predicted a decrease in precipitation but with extreme climate events … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 13 Apr 2013 · 7,852 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPartial Least Squares Regression Based Variables Selection for Water Level PredictionsNoraini Ibrahim, Antoni WibowoFloods are common phenomenon in the state of Kuala Krai, specifically in Kelantan-Malaysia. Every year, floods affecting biodiversity on this region and also causing property loss of this residential area. The residents in Kelantan always suffered from floods since the water overflows to the areas adjoining to the rivers, lakes or dams. Months, average monthly rainfall, temperature, relative humidity and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 7 Apr 2013 · 6,621 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRiver Flow Conditions and Dynamic State Analysis of Pahang RiverMuhamad Barzani Gasim, M. E. Toriman, Mushrifah Idris et al.Pahang River (Sg. Pahang) is the longest river in Peninsular Malaysia. Flood is a common event in Pahang River Basin during wet season which triggered by monsoon season. The hydrodynamic study of Pahang River should be well understood especially when it is a target of northeast monsoon which influenced the Pahang River Basin every year (from November to March). 17 … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 10 Jan 2013 · 8,704 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Analysis of Congestion Reduction Routing in Wireless Sensor NetworksT. V.P. Sundararajan, Thiyaneswaran Manoharan, Abinaya RajendranProblem statement: Data generated in wireless sensor networks may not all be alike: some data may be more important than others and hence may have different delivery requirements, To solve this problem addressed a differentiated data delivery in the presence of congestion in wireless sensor networks and proposed a class of algorithms that enforce differentiated routing based on the congested … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 28 Jun 2011 · 6,795 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Estimation of Rainfall using Fuzzy Set-Genetic Algorithms ModelTeerawat Thongwan, Anongrit Kangrang, Sahalaph HomwuttiwongProblem statement: Damaged by floods are natural disasters that have violence cause significant damage and economic and social. If we can prevent disasters that may occur in advance is important. So an estimated rainfall data is important information for prevention disasters. Approach: The objective of this study is to apply a fuzzy set theory to estimate rainfall. The genetic algorithm … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 28 Jan 2011 · 8,020 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Monitoring System for Mitigation Planning: The Case of "Bagnaschino" Landslide in Northern ItalyGiuliani Andrea, Bonetto Sabrina, Castagna Sara et al.Problem statement: The Bagnaschino landslide occurred in November 1994 that caused extensive floods and many landslides all over northern Italy. In southern Piedmont, the Casotto River (Cuneo Province) damaged many kilometers of provincial road and the river was dammed by this landslide. The landslide involves an area of about 100 thousands m3, but a good knowledge of the landslide is … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,191 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproved Continuing Losses Estimation Using Initial Loss-Continuing Loss Model for Medium Sized Rural CatchmentsMahbub Ilahee, Monzur Alam ImteazProblem statement: The rainfall based design flood estimation techniques are commonly adopted in hydrological design and require a number of inputs including information on soil loss characteristics. Approach: A conceptual loss model known as the ‘Initial Loss-Continuing Loss (IL-CL) model’ is widely used in Australia. Results: The Initial Loss (IL) occurs at the beginning of the rainfall event, prior to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,594 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdjustment of Peak Streamflows of a Tropical River for UrbanizationAta Amini, Thamer Mohammad Ali, Abdul Halim B Ghazali, Bujang Kim HuatPeak runoff from a catchment is influenced by many factors such as intensity and duration of rainfall, catchment topography, catchment shape, land use and other variables. For a particular catchment, landuse change and other human activities will alter the characteristic of catchment hydrograph. Problem statement: As a result of urbanization, the magnitude of floods occurring in a catchment increased. It … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,546 accessesView PDFCite
