flood routing has many applications in engineering projects and helps designers in understanding the flood flow characteristics in river flows. floods are taken unsteady flows that vary by time and location. equations governing unsteady flows in waterways are continuity and momentum equations which in case of one-dimensional flow the saint-venant hypothesis is considered. dynamic wave model as ...

reservoir dams are among the main storage systems employed in agriculture for the several past decades. proper operation of these reservoirs is important for irrigation espe-cially in such arid and semi-arid areas like iran, and particularly during dry years. a computational framework for reservoir simulation and flood routing is hereby presented. a key aspect of the reservoir simulation is the...

muskingum-cunge is one of the widely employed methods for flood routing. direct calibration of the model based on previous flood events is not required and the routing parameters in this method are determined according to physical characteristics and hydraulic conditions of the stream. during the last decade, different modifications were proposed for the method to increase its accuracy. in this...

Considering characteristics of high river density, special underlying surface in plain river network region, and municipal drainage system function, river network drainage unit model is proposed, which is defined as a region surrounded by main river or embankment. Flood storage variety and control projects regulation of small rivers in each unit is simulated. With drainage catchment as an objec...

abstract the muskingum method is frequently used to route floods in hydrology. however, application of the model is still difficult because of the parameter estimation’s. recently, some of heuristic methods have been used in order to estimate the nonlinear muskingum model. this paper presents a efficient heuristic algorithm, simulated annealing, which has been used to estimate the three paramet...

check dams, are small dams in the watershed. these dams are constructed in susceptible areas to erosion due to reduce of flow velocity and erosion, control of sediment and flood in upstream of reservoir dams. these structures are made using wood, stone and cement, and gabion. these structures change the hydrological response of the watershed by reducing flow velocity, the channel slope and stor...

The main approach to design flood estimation in Australia is event-based with the use of flood hydrograph models such as RORB, WBNM and URBS the most common practice for estimating design floods via rainfall based approaches. A characteristic of these models is that the routing of rainfall excess is distributed within the catchment, the amount of routing depending on the amount of sub-division ...

The directed flood-routing framework (DFRF) for wireless sensor networks is introduced in this paper that allows the modeling and rapid development of application specific routing protocols based on directed flooding. Flood-routing protocols are probabilistic methods that make only the best effort to route data packets. The presented family of protocols can route regular sized data packets via ...
