    The present article describes existing methods of calculating a drainage runoff module, their values are compared with those of the countries of Europe, USA and Russia. Parallels are drawn between the climatic and soil conditions of the Great Britain and the Kolkheti lowland. In view of the above and according to the experimental data the following conclusion was made implying that a value of the drainage runoff design module for the conditions of the Kolkheti lowland requires to be increased. 

    Anomalous translational velocity of vortex ring with finite-amplitude Kelvin waves

    We consider finite-amplitude Kelvin waves on an inviscid vortex assuming that the vortex core has infinitesimal thickness. By numerically solving the governing Biot-Savart equation of motion, we study how the frequency of the Kelvin waves and the velocity of the perturbed ring depend on the Kelvin wave amplitude. In particular, we show that, if the amplitude of the Kelvin waves is sufficiently large, the perturbed vortex ring moves backwards.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figures, v2: minor changes, v3: typos correcte

    Scattering of Line-Ring Vortices in a Superfluid

    We study the scattering of vortex rings by a superfluid line vortex using the Gross-Pitaevskii equation in a parameter regime where a hydrodynamic description based on a vortex filament approximation is applicable. By using a vortex extraction algorithm, we are able to track the location of the vortex ring as a function of time. Using this, we show that the scattering of the vortex ring in our Gross-Pitaevskii simulations is well captured by the local induction approximation of a vortex filament model for a wide range of impact parameters. The scattering of a vortex ring by a line vortex is characterised by the initial offset of the centre of the ring from the axis of the vortex. We find that a strong asymmetry exists in the scattering of a ring as a function of this initial scattering parameter
