Abstract: By linearizing the St. Venant system of equations and decomposing the tidal oscillations into a series of sinusoidal constituents, Ippen and Harleman (in 1966) developed a semianalytical harmonic method for simulation of ...

Abstract: A one-dimensional mathematical model is presented for quantification of fine-grained sediment movement in small canals. The model is based on the time-dependent, advection-dispersion equation. The model simulates the effects ...

Abstract: The three‐parameter nonlinear Muskingum method for flood routing is analyzed. Analytical solutions for simplifying cases and approximate integral solutions for general cases are derived. Its accuracy depends mainly on the ...

Abstract: Analytical models are developed for the simulation of earthdam breach erosion. Using a reservoir water‐mass depletion equation, broad‐crested weir hydraulics and a breach‐erosion relation, solutions are derived for ...

Abstract: The parameters of Ippen and Harleman's harmonic analysis for the study of long periodic waves are investigated with emphasis on semidiurnal tidal co‐oscillations in one‐dimensional open channels. The data required for ...

Abstract: A mathematical model for border irrigation is developed using the spatially lumped continuity equation and the Muskingum type storage relation. The storage parameter is determined from physical border characteristics. The ...
