Abstract: A hydraulic streamflow routing method was developed using the continuity equation and the control volume form of the energy equation. The required input data consists of a geometric description of the cross‐section, Manning ...

Abstract: Large volumes of brine are being discharged into the Gulf of Mexico where cavities are being mined in salt domes for the storage of crude oil along the Gulf Coast. A model study of a dense, vertical jet in a stagnant ...

Abstract: A mathematical model is presented for the purpose of representing the washoff of sediments from small urban watersheds during storm events. The model simulates the contribution of sediments from each of the different land ...

Abstract: The performance and reliability of four of the more popular methods for one-dimensional flow analysis of bridges were investigated. These four methods were the HEC-2 Normal Bridge Method, HEC-2 Special Bridge Method, WSPRO, ...

Abstract: A study to determine the sensitivity of the unit hydrograph to the effects of the urbanization process was conducted. The overland flow parameter that defines the degree of urbanization in an urban watershed is the percentage ...

Abstract: Basinwide planning, including channel improvements, is essential to prevent misapplication of detention storage. The concept of reducing the peak outflow from an on‐site detention pond to the predevelopment peak discharge ...

Abstract: Equations are developed for computing the unit hydrograph for ungaged watersheds. The two‐parameter gamma function unit hydrograph from the HYMO hydrologic model is used in the study and equations for estimating the time ...

Abstract: A hydrometerological study of the Yockanookany watershed in Mississippi was conducted to demonstrate the use of National Weather Service (NWS) radar and rain gage data for flood forecasting. Weather radar scenes were ...

Abstract: The use of geographic information systems (GIS) can make the task of compiling necessary spatial data and the required hydrologic parameters for modeling watershed runoff relatively easy. Furthermore, recent advances in ...
