Discussion of “Numerical Oscillations in Pipe-Filling Bore Predictions by Shock-Capturing Models” by J. G. Vasconcelos, S. J. Wright, and P. L. Roe
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Well-Balanced Scheme for Modeling Open-Channel and Surcharged Flows in Steep-Slope Closed Conduit Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The model presented in this paper preserves lake at rest conditions in sloped prismatic conduits. These schemes are based on the two-governing equation model in which open-channel flows are simulated using the Saint-Venant ...
Fast Approach for Unsteady Flow Routing in Complex River Networks Based on Performance Graphs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a new model for unsteady flow routing through dendritic and looped river networks based on performance graphs. The model builds on the application of a hydraulic performance graph (HPG) to unsteady flow ...
Discussion of “Potential Dangers of Simplifying Combined Sewer Hydrologic/Hydraulic Models” by J. P. Cantone and A. R. Schmidt
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Hydrologic-Hydraulic Model for Simulating Dual Drainage and Flooding in Urban Areas: Application to a Catchment in the Metropolitan Area of Chicago
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A one-dimensional (1D) hydrologic-hydraulic model for simulating dual drainage in urban areas is presented. It consists of four modules: (1) rainfall-runoff transformation, (2) 1D flow routing on a street network, (3) flow ...
Dynamic Framework for Intelligent Control of River Flooding: Case Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a case study on the application of a dynamic framework for the intelligent control of flooding in the Boise River system in Idaho. This framework couples a robust and numerically efficient hydraulic ...
Incorporating Filters in Random Search Algorithms for the Hourly Operation of a Multireservoir System
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Optimization of short-term reservoir operation normally involves ramping constraints of outflows and water elevations at short time steps (e.g., hourly). Random search algorithms, such as genetic algorithms, have been ...
Godunov-Type Solutions for Transient Flows in Sewers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This work is part of a long term project which aims at developing a hydraulic model for real-time simulation of unsteady flows in sewers ranging from gravity flows, to partly gravity–partly surcharged flows to fully ...
Efficient Second-Order Accurate Shock-Capturing Scheme for Modeling One- and Two-Phase Water Hammer Flows
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper focuses on the formulation and assessment of a second-order accurate finite volume (FV) shock-capturing scheme for simulating one- and two-phase water hammer flows. The two-phase flow model is based on the ...
Junction and Drop-Shaft Boundary Conditions for Modeling Free-Surface, Pressurized, and Mixed Free-Surface Pressurized Transient Flows
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A junction and drop-shaft boundary conditions (BCs) for one-dimensional modeling of transient flows in single-phase conditions (pure liquid) are formulated, implemented and their accuracy are evaluated using two computational ...
