The velocity of the river flow

Rok, strany: 2008, 87 - 94

The aim of this paper is to contribute to a statistical solution of the estimation problem of a water flow. The most essential objective of hydrometry still lies, according to the widely recognized opinion, in a precise determination of velocity of the water flow in a particular river basin. In order to measure the water speed, a hydrometric propeller and Pitot's tube are frequently used. In the real situation we have measured the velocity of the points and the coordinates of these points in $I$ places of the river basin. The aim of the measurement is to find the estimators of the streamline, the estimator of the maximal velocity on the streamline, the parameter $κ₁$, $κ₂$ and $κ₃$, describing the decrease of the velocity according to the distance from the streamline in $x$, $y$ and $z$ direction. The model described above could be studied by the theory of linear models.
