Abstract: The conventional and the more refined difference schemes of the Muskingum method are evaluated from the considerations of diffusion analogy principle, and as numerical schemes for replacing the Muskingum analytical solution. ...

Abstract: The study analyzes the volume conservation problem of the variable parameter Muskingum–Cunge (VPMC) method for which some remedial solutions have been advocated in recent literature. The limitation of the VPMC method to ...

Abstract: Using a variable parameter Muskingum method, a procedure for discharge hydrograph routing in prismatic channels considering downstream effects is presented. The method involves a two step process: (1) a given routing reach ...

Abstract: An approach for developing a simplified variable-parameter stage-hydrograph routing method from the Saint Venant equations is proposed for routing floods in any shape of prismatic channel and flow following a generalized ...

Abstract: The variable-parameter simplified stage-hydrograph routing method developed in Part I of this series is studied to determine its limitations, the criterion for its applicability, and its accuracy based on the assumptions ...

Abstract: This paper describes the development of simplified momentum equations, in stage as well as in discharge formulations, governing the transition between the diffusion and the kinematic waves (including the latter). It also ...
