Static tests employed a strain-controlled loading setup with a maximum displacement of 25 mm, applying constant ramp rate alongside varied normal loads and varied ramp rates at constant normal load. Dynamic tests, under stress-controlled conditions, investigated: (i) varying normal stress levels while maintaining constant shear stress and frequency, (ii) different shear stress levels while keeping normal stress and frequency constant, (iii) different frequencies while holding normal and shear stresses constant. The findings indicate a significant correlation between higher shear modulus values and increased ramp rates and normal loads. Conversely, dynamic shear modulus decreases with escalating shear strain and loading cycles. Moreover, within a fixed number of loading cycles, dynamic shear modulus rises with augmented normal and shear loads but declines with higher frequencies, maintaining other parameters constant.

The permeability of the rock mass is a critical factor that influences the estimation of water flow rates. Since the tunnel passes through various geological units with different permeabilities, it is crucial to estimate the equivalent permeability for each unit in order to predict the water seepage from that unit into the tunnel. In order to estimate the permeability along the tunnel and underground structures, twelve exploratory boreholes were drilled, and water pressure tests were conducted. Due to the distribution of the exploratory boreholes, a study and statistical analysis are necessary to determine the permeability of the rock mass for each geological unit. Using geostatistical log kriging, multiple indicator kriging with four thresholds, and multiple indicator kriging with five thresholds, the permeability of the rock mass at the tunnel route was estimated. The results indicate that at least 40% of the rock mass has low permeability, while the remaining mass of the tunnel passes through rocks with moderate to high permeability. The accuracy of the estimated permeability values was evaluated by predicting the water inflow into the tunnel using the estimated permeability values and comparing it to the observed flow. Numerical models were generated for each geological unit to estimate the water inflow into the tunnel, based on the results of the geostatistical methods. Log kriging, multiple indicator kriging with four thresholds, and multiple indicator kriging with five thresholds were used to calculate the water inflow, resulting in 94.15, 94.15, and 127.5 L per second, respectively. The results of the modeling were compared to the observed water flow into the tunnel. Comparing the modeling results to both the statistical methods and observed values showed errors of 31.2%, 31.2%, and 6.9%, respectively. Of the three methods, the multiple indicator kriging computational method with five thresholds was found to be the most accurate, with the least amount of error and the closest approximation to the actual value.

The accuracy of rainfall and temperature data plays a crucial role as effective inputs in hydrological models, such as the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model, significantly impacting the accuracy of the model outputs. This is despite the insufficiency of climatological stations in watersheds. Therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate the SWAT model in runoff simulation using rainfall and temperature from ground stations in comparison with the data derived from satellite images. To do this, rainfall and surface temperature data were extracted the number of 14,608 images from three-hour Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) product and the number of 1826 images from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) products in Taleghan dam watershed, from 2009 to 2015. Minimum and maximum daily air temperatures were estimated from Land Surface Temperature (LST) data through multiple regression analysis. The Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model was executed under four different scenarios: the first involved using rainfall and temperature data exclusively from ground stations, in the second, rainfall was sourced from TRMM images and temperature from ground stations, the third strategy combined ground station rainfall data with MODIS temperature data, and the fourth strategy utilized satellite-derived data for both rainfall and temperature inputs. Findings from the study revealed that the SWAT model demonstrated the most accurate runoff simulations when incorporating satellite-derived data. Specifically, the Nash–Sutcliffe Efficiency (NSE) values were 0.67 and 0.83 for daily and monthly time scales, respectively, indicating superior performance compared to using solely ground station data. When ground station data alone were employed, the NSE values were slightly lower at 0.62 and 0.7 for daily and monthly time scales, respectively. These results underscore the effectiveness of utilizing satellite-derived data as inputs for hydrological models, particularly in regions where there is a scarcity of observational data.
