Version 1 is used in the United Kingdom, and modifies runoff coefficient as C=CvCR, where CR is dimensionless routing coefficient (which addresses the fact that runoffs from some parts of the site would flow to the downstream point faster than others) that tends to be ignored (Ballard et ...
Probabilistic design of ground improvement by vertical drains for soil of spatially variable coefficient of consolidation The design of soil consolidation via prefabricated vertical drains (PVDs) has been traditionally carried out deterministically and thus can be misleading d...

Civil engineering Development of Guidance for Runoff Coefficient Selection and Modified Rational Unit Hydrograph Method for Hydrologic Design AUBURN UNIVERSITY Xing Fang DhakalNirajanThe rational method is the most widely used method by hydraulic and drainage engineers to estimate design discharges. The ...
The runoff coefficient ( C) is a key parameter for the rational method. Literature-based C values (Clit) are listed for different land-use/land-cover conditions in various design manuals and textbooks, but Clit appear not to be derived from any observed data. In this study, Clit values ...
In this study, we firstly differentiate these forms of the Rational Method and show that a key point of difference between the forms lies in their interpretations of the runoff coefficient parameter. We then focus on the widely used hybrid Rational Method and demonstrate that the runoff ...
In the rational method, the design runoff coefficient (C_T) is defined as a function of land use, soil type, slope, and return period. A technique is proposed here to compute C_T based on the regional analysis of daily rainfall and soil conservation service curve number (SCS-CN) ...
According to the statistics of the measured water levels and simulated water levels for 23 observation wells, the mean value of the residual error of the water level was 0.73 m, and the correlation coefficient was 0.997. Certain measured values deviated from the simulated values within the 95% ...
In the analysis of hydrologic frequency, the P-III distribution is confirmed by three statistical parameters of the samples (mean x, the coefficient of variation Cv and Cs). Furthermore, Cv = σ/x and Cs = γCv. By analyzing the sample mean x and the variance σ, the sample size of ...
