Practical Determination of Hypothetical Floods
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A comprehensive procedure for simultaneously relating storm rainfalls of a range of frequencies to runoff hydrographs of the same frequencies is suggested. Hypothetical storm rainfall is developed from published rainfall ...
Estimating Flood Frequency and Average Annual Damage
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In the National Research Council (NRC) report, “Flood Risk Management and the American River Basin—An Evaluation,” the use of expected probability (accounting for sampling uncertainty) in estimating flood frequencies and ...
Discussion: Expected Probability and Annual Damage Estimators
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Anatomy of Best Estimate
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Every engineering computation is attended by some degree of uncertainty due to factors not taken into account and limitations of data. As a result, computed values differ from true values in nature, and the size and frequency ...
