Levee Breaching with GPU-SPHysics Code
نویسندگان
چکیده
A GPU-based Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics model is used to model the water flooding associated with various types of levee failures. The failures include instantaneous flood wall section failure, a slowly toppling wall, and a dropping wall. The intent of the paper is to illustrate the complex nonhydrostatic flows associated with the levee failures, and their resulting impact on the nearby structures.

Investigation of the waves generated by underwater disturbances gives precious insight into the effect of man-made underwater explosions as well as natural phenomena, such as underwater volcanoes or oceanic meteor impact. On the other hand, prediction of the effects of such waves on the coastal installations and structures is required for preparation worthwhile criteria for coastal engineers to...
متن کاملAccelerating high-order WENO schemes using two heterogeneous GPUs
A double-GPU code is developed to accelerate WENO schemes. The test problem is a compressible viscous flow. The convective terms are discretized using third- to ninth-order WENO schemes and the viscous terms are discretized by the standard fourth-order central scheme. The code written in CUDA programming language is developed by modifying a single-GPU code. The OpenMP library is used for parall...
متن کاملControlled water-level system for breach analysis of levees within an enhanced acceleration field
Correct scaling of breach analysis of river levees is a challenging task that is not easily accomplished by physical modelling. Several small-scale physical model tests have been conducted at 1-g level, which cannot truly represent the stress-dependency of soils, whereas the scaling issues arising from centrifuge modelling have not been fully explored.Two key features have to be considered when...
متن کاملNot all breaks are equal: Variable hydrologic and geomorphic responses to intentional levee breaches along the lower Cosumnes River, California
River Res Applic. 2017;1–13. Abstract The transport of water and sediment from rivers to adjacent floodplains helps generate complex floodplain, wetland, and riparian ecosystems. However, riverside levees restrict lateral connectivity of water and sediment during flood pulses, making the re‐introduction of floodplain hydrogeomorphic processes through intentional levee breaching and removal an e...
