In this project, we have worked with an indicator on an automatic water level controller. When we looked up our topic on the internet, we realized that most of the projects used microcontrollers or IC 555, but we didn't include any of these circuits in our model. Our design is based on the LM324N IC, which functions as a rectifier, oscillator, and comparator. On this foundation, we construct our circuit, and our model is successfully executed at a minimal cost. The project's goal is to conserve water. Water is a necessary component of our daily life. Water plays a vital role in our everyday life since there is not any water we can't imagine in our lives. Water is essential for digestion and plays some important roles in the body, such as waste removal, body temperature control, and nutrient transport. Our daily lives began in the upper tank that is the most crucial part of all the houses. Water in your house, including drinking, cooking, bathing, cleaning, and washing, is used almost for all purposes. Appliances such as washing machines and scrubbers require continuous flow. Inhouse, overhead tanks comply with those requirements. As a result, saving water for humans is important. This problem can be solved by using an automatic water level controller and indicator. The water level controller's operation is based on the fact that water conducts electricity due to the minerals in it. So As a result, the circuit can be opened or closed using water. The various circuits in the control unit send out different signals as the water level rises or falls. These signals are used to turn ON or OFF the motor pump depending on our requirements. I'm going to install an automatic water level controller so we don't have to manually turn the motor ON and OFF. The unit tracks the water level and then activates the relay, which activates the Motor. The LM324N IC, carbon level sensor, and relay are the key components in this unit. With this project, we will be able to automatically monitor water wastage and maintain water levels in various systems, such as water tanks, boilers, swimming pools, and so on. Water and energy losses are reduced as a result of this. This also saves manpower because it is no longer necessary to run it manually.

Level Monitoring

In this paper, we bring about the idea of water level monitoring and controlling with IOT and Mobile applications. The vast amount of water wasted in the current scenario, mostly due to overflowing tanks is not acceptable. Existing water tanks control systems can monitor and control the water level in tank, which leads to reduction in amount of wastage of ample water but the type of sensors which are used in such a system does not specify exact changes in water level leading to unstable control parameters. Other technologies had some drawbacks based on speed of detection and approximation of sensor data. The need of improvement of these short-comings and providing an accurate and ethinic solution has been the main aim of this project. The project has been further improvised by using electronic water level sensors which uses potentiometric techniques to measure water level in water tanks, along with ultrasonic sensors for better metrics and control. Further up, this project can be implemented on large scale to control and detect rising water levels in dams and reservoirs to avoid flash floods and excess pressure in dams. The proposed system will help to identify the smallest changes in water level in case of rainfall measurement as well.

The Impact

Modal characteristics of engineering structures can be determined via dynamic observation in scope of system identification and they can be used for a variety of purposes, including model updates, damage assessment, active control, and original design re-evaluation. This paper presents the use of an autoregressive with eXogenous inputs (ARX) model to assess the impact of horizontal displacements in the Oymapinar Dam in Antalya province, Turkey, during the first reservoir filling stage. Besides, displacements in the dam after the filling stage are predicted. There is a high linear correlation between the displacements of the body of the dam and the first filling phase of the reservoir. An ARX model of the dam without damage is created using displacements predicted from a 3D finite element model of the dam and the changes in water level. The displacements in the dam observed in the first filling phase are recalculated using water level changes for damaged or undamaged cases, observed displacements, and the parameters of the undamaged ARX model. The standard deviations of the residuals calculated from the ARX model of the undamaged dam are statistically compared for different confidence intervals using the standard deviations of residuals of the ARX model of the undamaged or damaged dam’s observations, and it was determined that there was no dangerous damage to the dam. In addition, the observed displacement values were extended in different scales and standard deviations of these displacements are calculated using the ARX of the undamaged dam model. These standard deviations and the one calculated from undamaged model of the dam were compared, and it was determined that 55 mm of displacement could be dangerous for the dam. Finally, the displacements in the dam for different water levels in the operation phase (after filling) were predicted using the ARX model and were found to be consistent with the measured displacement values.

The flood control is one of the priority goal for successful economic activity on the areas that are periodically suffer from floods. Such areas are the mountainous regions of the Ukrainian Carpathian Mountains. Floods on the mountain rivers are repeated several times each year, and are characterized by the sudden water level rise with almost the same rapid decrease of the water level. Active flood protection measures include dry mountain flood control reservoirs, the principle of which is to transform part of the flood runoff and to accumulate water for the short time in the the artificial reservoir, with followed rapid emptying to the minimum level. The complex hydraulic regime is formed in the body of the dam which forms the flood control reservoir during the flood, that is different from the operation of the water permanent reservoir. The design of the flood control structures is car-ried out in accordance with Ukrainian building codes for the construction of the water reservoirs with constant water level, and require testing the stability of the downstream slope for the maximum water levels under steady state seepage conditions and assessment the upstream slope stability during the water level decreasing  from the maximum level calculated in the steady state condition, these calculations do not correspond to the real seepage processes in the body of the dam of the dry flood control reservoir. Therefore, the purpose of this work is to determine the necessary boundary conditions of the flood control reservoir operation and upstream slope stability assessment by the limit equilibrium method. In the article the operation of the dry mountain flood control reservoir was analysed and found that the dam was characterized by two states: dry reservoir with water minimum water level and variable position of the seepage curve in the core and the upstream prism during the flood. The main factors influencing the upstream slope stability are the physical and mechanical properties of the soil, the laying of the slope, the period of time when the high-water level is maintained and the intensity of water level dropping. The upstream slope stability was evaluated by the Morgenstern & Price and Ordinary methods on the Slope/w software package. After the first 25 hours of the flood (period of high-water levels and the next water level dropping) the Safety Factor evaluated by limit equilibrium methods began to decrease, and reached the minimum value during the greatest seepage curve gradients at the time between 45 and 50 hours. Slope stability calculations by the limit equilibrium method were compared with the results of calculations performed by the SRM method, the values ​​of the Safety Factor and the way of their change during the flood evaluated by Ordinary and SRM methods almost coincide, which indicates the reliability of the results obtained by different methods of slope stability analysis

Milp Model

A water level sensor is critical to measure water levels at strategic points in the river.  The sensor location directly impacts the quality of the collected data sent to the flood early warning system. To prevent and minimize the risk of flooding, it is crucial to determine the optimal locations for water level sensor placement. This research proposes a Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) model for water level sensor placement considering multi-sensor and multi-disaster areas. In addition, this model was applied in a case study in Tikala River, Manado, Indonesia.  The results indicated that all disaster areas could be covered by at least one single sensor. A sensitivity analysis was performed by running the model under several different budget scenarios.  When the budget increases, the number of sensors and the coverage performance are getting larger. Thus, the proposed MILP model was able to determine the optimal locations for sensor placement under a limited budget.

This paper uses a hedonic price model to estimate the impact of water level on the value of real estate on Lake Koshkonong in Wisconsin. Hedonic techniques are employed to show that a reduction in the lake’s water level has a significant effect on shoreline property values. The body of existing research demonstrates that changes in both the subjective and objective indicators of value are important for estimating the implicit value of water quality in hedonic analysis. This paper provides new evidence on the economic harm to lake communities created by the reduction of water levels.

ABSTRACT On-site stormwater detention – OSD has been constructed in big Brazilian cities, as a way to reduce the impact of urbanization on the drainage system. However, there are a few studies about its efficiency in real scale. This article aims to compare the monitoring data of an OSD built in a hospital in Belo Horizonte and the results determined by theoretical methods, commonly used in the design of this structure. Inside the OSD was installed a level sensor to monitor water level during rain events. The data was recorded on a data logger every 30 seconds during the period April 2015 to March 2017. It was analyzed the OSD filling during the occurrence of 48 precipitation events. In the maximum heights of water level comparison, it was found that the monitored values were higher than theoretical values and the results using Rational Method were closer to monitoring data than the results with SCS-HU Method. It was also found that the peak and recession time calculated with Rational Method represented better the water levels monitored.
