GIS-Based Decision Support System for Dam Break Flood Management under Uncertainty with Two-Dimensional Numerical Simulations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A geographical information system (GIS)-based decision support system has been developed for dam-break flood management based on realistic two-dimensional flood simulations. With the ability of interacting with and using ...
Numerical Modeling of Rainfall-Generated Overland Flow Using Nonlinear Shallow-Water Equations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a physics-based two-dimensional (2D) numerical model to simulate overland flows typically generated by rainfall of a storm event or multiple events in natural terrain with complex topography, landform, ...
Climate-Related Trends of Within-Storm Intensities Using Dimensionless Temporal-Storm Distributions
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Huff curves are probabilistic time distributions of rainfall expressed as dimensionless cumulative percentages of storm depth and duration. Previous studies have documented development factors, spatial robustness, and the ...
