TY - JOUR AU - Lee, Pierre AU - Sharma, Tariq AU - Mwangi, Kwame AU - Hossain, Iqbal TI - Taguchi Methods for Groundwater Flow: Some Practical Considerations JO - Open Access Journal of Engineering Applications PY - 1988 VL - 12 IS - 1 SP - 696 EP - 725 AB - The present investigation addresses the persistent difficulty of predicting groundwater flow in irrigation systems. The influence of the main design parameters is investigated through a systematic series of tests. It is found that groundwater flow accounts for as much as 48% of the total observed variation. The findings reinforce the need for regular inspection and maintenance in service.
