EFFECT OF BUFFER ANGLE FOR STORM FLOW REGULATOR IN CONTROLLING PEAK DISCHARGE

Progressive movement from agriculture to an industrialized economy has resulted urbanization everywhere. Yet, this comes along with incidence of flash flood in urban area which is not longer to be surprised by Malaysians. Due to the paucity of data in the literature, this study aimed to determine th...
