The accurate simulation of SWAT can assist the government in making correct decisions about water management practices, which are important for human health, agricultural management, industry development, environmental quality, flood risk assessment, and recreation. In this project, the PIs were trying to improve the simulation accuracy of the SWAT model through developing new algorithm to obta...

Due to the immense damage caused by dam failure, especially dams constructed near large cities, it is necessary to consider the breaking phenomena as well as studying and designing different parts of the dam. For this purpose, the hydrograph of the outflow due to dam failure must be identified according to size of the fracture and then flood routing, and flood zone must be determined based on t...

The paper presents the state-of-the-art in flood forecasting and simulation applied to a river flood analysis and risk prediction. Different water flow forecasting and river simulation models are analysed. An advanced river flood forecasting and modelling approach developed within the ongoing project INFROM is described. It provides an integrated procedure for river flow forecasting and simulat...

The real time flood forecasting is one of the most effective nonstructural measures for flood management. For formulating the flood forecast in the real time, the observed meteorological and flow data are transmitted to the forecasting station through the different means of data communication which include telephone, wireless and network of telemetry stations etc. The collected meteorological a...

Abstract. Detention dams are one of the most effective practices for flood mitigation. Therefore, impact these structures on basin hydrological response is critical management and design control structures. With aim providing a mathematical framework to interpret effect flow systems river dynamics, functional relationship between inflows outflows investigated derived in closed form. This allowe...

Abstract Spatial modelling of flood-prone areas will provide maximum results if it is supported by the accuracy data acquired, mainly related to elevation or area’s topography. generated from accurate topographic can estimate river’s carrying capacity. This study built a spatial model using aerial, terrestrial, and hydrographic surveys. Aerial surveys were conducted UAV corrected terrestrial su...

rivers are important water resources for human life, but sometimes cause irreparable damages. the flood plains are fertile terrains which are endangered by flood. flood hazard mapping is one of the basic methods in flood fighting. in order to decline flood damages, the simulation of the hydraulic behavior of the rivers during flood occurrence is very important. in this study, areas that are flo...

A computer application and national geospatial database have been developed to support the calculation of flooding flow (Q f) and threshold runoff across the conterminous United States and Alaska. Flooding flow is the flow required to cause a stream to slightly overflow its bank and cause damage. Threshold runoff @L#, defined as the depth of runoff required to cause flooding, is computed as flo...

Multivariate statistics are commonly used to identify the factors that control the dynamics of runoff or sediment yields during hydrological processes. However, one issue with the use of conventional statistical methods to address relationships between variables and runoff or sediment yield is multicollinearity. The main objectives of this study were to apply a method for effectively identifyin...
