    • Osmotic consolidation of expansive soil 

      Sam, Bulolo; E.C., Leong (Japanese Geotechnical Society Special Publication, 2019)
      The mechanical behavior of expansive soils is influenced by the concentration of salts in their pore water. Research has shown that volume change of soil can occur due to a difference in salt concentration in the pore ...

    • Suitability of averaged outputs from multiple rainfall-runoff models for hydrological extremes: a case of River Kafu catchment in East Africa 

      Onyutha, C.; Amollo, C. J.; Nyende, J.; Nakagiri, A. (Springer link:International Journal of Energy and Water Resources., 2020-05-26)
      In this study, seven rainfall-runoff models were applied to model daily River Kafu flows from 1952 to 1981. Among others, models from the rainfall-runoff library of the eWater toolkit were applied. Optimal parameters of ...
