Intake Parameters from Advance and Wetting Phases of Surface Irrigation

TL;DR: In this paper, a volume balance approach is proposed to determine the parameters of the Kostiakov or modified Kstiakov infiltration equations in border and furrow irrigation, which requires measured data.

Impermanent changes investigation of shape factors of the volumetric balance model for water development in surface irrigation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the variations of the shape factors relative to time by Valiantzas' method, which is based on combination of volume balance and kinematic wave models.

A Kinematic Model for Surface Irrigation

TL;DR: In this paper, a kinematic wave model is developed to study surface irrigation depending on the variability of infiltration and the kinematics wave friction parameter, three cases are distinguished Explicit analytical solutions are obtained for the case when infiltration is constant, and a possible approach is suggested for the possible approach when it is not.

Infiltration from Irrigation Advance Data. I: Theory

TL;DR: In this article, the Laplace transformation, integral, and numerical solution methods to the Lewis and Milne surface irrigation volume balance equation are presented and discussed, and a simple and direct method based on the Kostiakov infiltration equation and the power advance equation is suggested for field use in determining infiltration from advance data and for calculations of irrigation efficiencies.

Estimation of soil and crop hydraulic properties.

TL;DR: Some two dozen methods for estimating infiltration and roughness parameters from field measurements of test irrigations are reviewed in this paper, which differ in their assumptions, ease of analysis, quantity of field data required, and accuracy.
