    Mysore Tourist attractions Mysore is the second largest city in the state of Karnataka, India. The name Mysore is an anglicised version of Mahishnjru, which means the abode of Mahisha. Mahisha stands for Mahishasura, a demon from the Hindu mythology. The city is spread across an area of 128.42 km² (50 sq mi) and is situated at the base of the Chamundi Hills. Mysore Palace : is a palace situated in the city. It was the official residence of the former royal family of Mysore, and also housed the durbar (royal offices).The term "Palace of Mysore" specifically refers to one of these palaces, Amba Vilas. Brindavan Gardens is a show garden that has a beautiful botanical park, full of exciting fountains, as well as boat rides beneath the dam. Diwans of Mysore planned and built the gardens in connection with the construction of the dam. Display items include a musical fountain. Various biological research departments are housed here.

In particular time series of data is plotted to find man-made sources like dams, wells, tube wells, hand-pumps, any possible trend. Using ARIMA model future water inflows canals, etc. Agriculture and plantation depends heavily on water is plotted. We would like to use the data for water and its source is rainfall. Mathematical models are required to management analysis and for model based statistical inference predict future water demand and climate changes. Time series are valuable sources of information that can be consulted for the of environmental systems that account for the need of using characterization of variables in several areas of knowledge. It is prior information, input and model structure uncertainty. In basically a measurement of data taken in chronological order order to analyze the water inflow the average wet weather within a certain time. In hydrology, such series are employed in flow can be estimated from water flow data. Water inflow is water systems management as tools for the hydrological cycle defined as the water other than sanitary wastewater that enters understanding. The purpose of most water quality and stream a sewer system from sources such as roof leaders, flow studies is to point out the information and necessary cellar/foundation drains, yard drains, area drains, drains etc.

  • D1.1 Mission Report Bhadra Dam and Reservoir Karnataka, India
    D1.1 Mission report Bhadra dam and reservoir Karnataka, India Deltares in cooperation with iPresas, SkyGeo and Royal Eijkelkamp Mrs. Jessica Castillo Mr. Joris Benninga Mr. Leon van Hamersveld Mr. Min Xu Mr. Ton Peters 11200775-001 © Deltares, 2017, B 11200775-001-GEO-0001, Version 03,30 May 2017, final Deltares Keywords Bhadra dam, dam safety, water reservoir, Operation & Maintenance, emergency response, PS-lnSAR satellite imaging, online monitoring system, risk-informed dam safety management, FEWS forecasting. Summary The water reservoirs in India are of vital importance to the cities and urban areas. They provide water for irrigation of the land (food production), are used to generate electricity (water and energy) and offer protection against flooding (safety). Often, the dams are aging, but are also facing different circumstances than when designed, due to changes in land use, socio-economic developments and climate change. The goal of the DAMSAFE pilot project is to contribute to enhancing dam safety and water management in India by introducing innovative technologies that improve forecasting of dam and reservoir behaviour. This will contribute to optimization of water management, Operation and Maintenance (O&M) and emergency response. The main stakeholders to the project in India are the Karnataka Water Resources Department (KaWRD) and the Central Water Commission (CWC) in New Delhi. The DAMSAFE consortium consists of Deltares (coordinator), Royal Eijkelkamp, SkyGeo and iPresas. This document presents a summary report on activities and meetings in February 2017, including the inception meeting, a site visit to the Bhadra dam and a working session on dam failure mode identification. Next to that a monitoring system for the dam and reservoir is designed based on identified failure mechanism and goals of the project.

    Flat Jack Method for Measuring Design Parameters for Hydraulic Structures of the Koyna Hydro Electric Project in India Keshav Ral Dhawan, Chief Research Officer, Central Water & Power Research Station, Khadakwasla, Pune– 411 024; [email protected] ABSTRACT: The paper presents two different projects: The first involves a case with limited rock cover on a side of an excavated surge shaft located near a steep slope. The second involves the assessment of design parameters of an existing masonry dam for use as input in dynamic analysis. The induced stresses in the surge shaft of Koyna Hydro Electric Project (K.H.E.P.) stage-IV were measured with flat jack. These tests were first performed in a 4 m diameter pilot shaft and after the shaft was excavated to its full diameter of 22.70 m. The stresses increased from 3.96 MPa to 5.09 MPa, when the 4m- diameter surge shaft was expanded to its full diameter of 22.70 m, in the case where significant rock mass cover existed at EL 651.00 m. However stress reduction or no variation in the induced stress was measured in the portion of insufficient rock cover. In the second case, to determine the design parameters of Kolkewadi masonry dam of K.H.E.P stage-III, flat jack tests were conducted at the upstream side of Kolkewadi masonry dam in masonry of 1:4 and 1:3 and at downstream sloping side in masonry of 1:5. It is impractical and difficult to obtain mechanical properties of masonry in laboratory from the extracted core samples, due to intrinsic nonhomogeneity of the material.
