The city of Mississauga has recently identified strategic growth areas where investments will be targeted for redevelopment and intensification projects. One of the growth areas has a history of flooding during major storm events. In order to redevelop this area, businesses and land owners need to prepare development proposals ensuring that appropriate flood proofing requirements have been achi...

The Muskingum-Cunge flood routing procedure has been incorporated into the Natural Resources Conservation Service Technical Release 20 (TR-20) hydrologic model. The TR-20 model is an event watershed hydrologic model used to analyze impacts of watershed changes (land use, reservoir construction, channel modification, etc) on volume of runoff and peak discharge. Rainfall runoff modeling is very i...

the developing turbulent flow in an open channel is a complex three-dimensional flow influenced by the secondary currents and free surface effects and is, therefore, not amenable to analytical solution. this paper aims to study the impact of three key hydraulic parameters (relative roughness, the froude number and the reynolds number) on the establishment length using computational fluid dynami...
