Sensitivity of Field Data Estimates in One-Dimensional Hydraulic Modeling of Channels
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A hydraulic simulation study was carried out for Red Hill Creek, an urban stream channel in Ontario, Canada. Over one million simulations were conducted using the HEC-RAS4b model to evaluate the sensitivity of model ...
Limitations in Extraction of Survey Data from Real-Time Kinematic GPS ADCP Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A total of 595 real-time kinematic global positioning system (RTK-GPS) water surface elevations (WSE) were measured using georectified and nongeorectified survey systems along a 21-km-long river reach to evaluate vertical ...
How Large Immobile Sediments in Gravel Bed Rivers Impact Sediment Transport and Bed Morphology
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: A common approach used to mitigate riverbank erosion and maintain watercourse alignments has been through the application of riprap or larger, more stable particles to channel boundaries along reaches of interest. However, ...
