    • Tsallis Entropy Based Velocity Distribution in Open Channel Flows 
      Luo, Hao (2010-07-14)
      The Tsallis entropy is applied to derive both 1-D and 2-D velocity distributions in an open channel cross section. These distributions contain a parameter m through which the Tsallis entropy becomes a generalization of the ...
    • Tsallis Entropy Theory for Derivation of Infiltration Equations 
      Singh, V. P. (American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers, 2010)
      An entropy theory is formulated for deriving infiltration equations for potential rate (or capacity) of infiltration in unsaturated soils. The theory is comprised of five parts: (1) Tsallis entropy, (2) principle of maximum ...
    • Tsallis Entropy-Based Flow Duration Curve 
      Byrd, Aaron; Cui, Huijuan; Singh, Vijay P. (American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers, 2014)
      The flow duration curve (FDC) is employed for addressing a multitude of problems in water resources engineering, such as prediction of the distribution of future flows, forecasting of future recurrence frequencies, comparison ...
