Abstract
Incorporating the time variant function of the otherwise used as steady infiltration rate, this paper presents revised versions of the popular and frequently used Kostiakov and modified Kostiakov infiltration models. The proposed, along with the existing, versions are tested on 40 datasets of infiltration observed on five different soils in India and USA The former indicated an improved performance over their respective existing versions. Further generalization of the improved modified Kostiakov model incorporating time to ponding showed an enhanced performance on all the soils.
