Numerical modeling of rapidly varying flows using HEC-RAS and WSPG models
نویسندگان
چکیده
The performance of two popular hydraulic models (HEC-RAS and WSPG) for modeling hydraulic jump in an open channel is investigated. The numerical solutions are compared with a new experimental data set obtained for varying channel bottom slopes and flow rates. Both the models satisfactorily predict the flow depths and location of the jump. The end results indicate that the numerical models output is sensitive to the value of chosen roughness coefficient. For this application, WSPG model is easier to implement with few input variables.

Floodplain mapping using HEC-RAS and GIS in semi-arid regions of Iran
Abstract A significant deficiency of most computer models used for stream floodplain analysis is that the locations of structures impacted by floodwaters, such as bridges, roads, and buildings, cannot be effectively compared to the floodplain location. This research presents a straightforward approach for processing output of the HEC-RAS hydraulic model, to enable two- and three dimensional f...

Aims & Background Assessing the vulnerability of urban areas to surface water in cities is of particular importance. Destruction of the watershed upstream of urban areas, including the destruction of vegetation and road construction, as well as the uncontrolled expansion of urban and industrial lands, reduces the infiltration and increases runoff and carries the risk of floods. This study aims ...
