## Abstract One of the tasks of environmental protection is to achieve good ecological status of water bodies and reduce agricultural non‐point pollution. As the drainage outflow may be identified as the leading source of water quality, reduction of nutrient transport through drains is therefore of

✦ Synopsis
The present paper deals with the numerical modelling of trench drainage in variably saturated porous media. In particular, the effect of the unsaturated storage coefficient form on the rate of transient seepage into the trench is investigated. Several numerical analyses are performed for two different soil types. The numerical results derived using a pressure head-dependent storage coefficient, are compared to those derived using constant storage coefficients. It is shown that simplifying assumptions using constant storage coefficients may predict too fast drainage rates.

In this work multi-modal systems subject to impact are considered. Using energy balance techniques for an arbitrary contact interval the effects of modal vibration can be included. The energy balance is used to obtain a relationship between the coefficient of restitution and the modal energy during
## Abstract The wind‐driven‐rain effect refers to the redistribution of rainfall over micro‐scale topography due to the existence of local perturbed wind‐flow patterns. Rainfall measurements reported in the literature point to the fact that the wind‐driven‐rain distribution can show large variation
