Download or read book Application of Two dimensional Hydraulic Modeling in Riverine Systems Using HEC RAS written by Abdulaziz Saeed Alzahrani and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flood simulation models have a wide variety of approaches that are available to compute the water surface elevations associated with a flood event. Some of these models use a One-dimensional (1D) approach, others use a Two-dimensional (2D), and there are others allow the use of integrated 1D and 2D simulations. In 2015, the US Army Corps of Engineering Hydrologic Engineering Center (HEC) released HEC-RAS Version 5.0.3 which performs 1D steady and unsteady flow calculation, as well as 2D unsteady flow calculation. 2D modeling is likely to become more common due to HEC-RAS. This paper is the comparison of 1D and 2D models for a water level in the channel and the floodplain inundation. Two treatments of the problem are explored: (1) a 1D model based upon discretization of floodplain units into storage areas; (2) a 2D model for a channel and a floodplain surface. The two models were tested on the Great Miami River and Bear Creek. The models were assessed by comparison with measured inundation extent. Also, the study reviews the academic basis for modeling floodplain flow based on a two-dimensional analysis. The goal of the proposed research effort will be to include the application of 2D unsteady-state models in future releases of the HEC-RAS 2D model.
Download or read book Nile River Basin written by Assefa M. Melesse and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-03-28 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents results of scientific studies ranging from hydrological modelling to water management and policy issues in the Nile River basin. It examines the physical, hydrometeorological and hydrogeological description of the basin along with analysis in understanding the hydrological processes of the basin under the changing land-use stemming from population pressure and increased natural resources tapping. The book discusses the increased impact of climate change on the river flows, and such issues as water availability and demand, management and policy to offset the imbalance between demand and available resources. This book will be of interest to researchers, practitioners, water resources mangers, policy makers as well as graduate and undergraduate students. It is a useful reference text for ecohydrology, arid zone hydrology, hydrology of transboundary rivers and similar courses.

Download or read book Breaking the HEC RAS Code written by Christopher Goodell and published by H2ls. This book was released on 2014-10-31 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most powerful, yet relatively unknown features available in HEC-RAS is the HECRASController. TheHECRASController API has a wealth of procedures which allow a programmer to manipulate HEC-RAS externally by setting input data, retrieving input or output data, and performing common functions such as opening and closing HEC-RAS, changing plans, running HEC-RAS, and plotting output. HECRASController applications are seemingly endless. Not only can the retrieval and post-processing of output be automated, but with the HECRASController, real-time modeling and probabilistic experiments like Monte Carlo are possible. If you have HEC-RAS on your computer, you already have the HECRASController! "Breaking the HEC-RAS Code" explains how the HECRASController works, provides example applications of the HECRASController, and catalogs the vast array of programming procedures (with explanations and examples on how to use them) embedded in the HECRASController. This is a "must-have" book for all HEC-RAS users. Professionals: Give yourself an edge for the next proposal and do something groundbreaking with HEC-RAS. Students: Make yourself marketable by adding the skills offered in this book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores many recent techniques including ANN, fuzzy logic, hydraulic models and IWRM utilized for integrated water resources management, a real challenge in India for obtaining high irrigation efficiency. The book deals with topics of current interest, such as climate change, floods, drought, and hydrological extremes. The impact of climate change on water resources is drawing worldwide attention these days; for water resources, many countries are already stressed and climate change along with burgeoning population, rising standard of living, and increasing demand are adding to the stress. Further, river basins are becoming less resilient to climatic vagaries. Fundamental to addressing these issues is hydrological modelling which is covered in this book Further, integrated water resources management is vital to ensure water and food security. Integral to the management is groundwater and solute transport. The book encompasses tools that will be useful to mitigate the adverse consequences of natural disasters.
