Hydrology and Floodplain Analysis (5th Edition)

Image
Hydrology and Floodplain Analysis (5th Edition)  [Hardcover] Philip B. Bedient  (Author),  Wayne C. Huber  (Author),  Baxter E. Vieux  (Author) This text offers a clear and up-to-date presentation of fundamental concepts and design methods required to understand hydrology and floodplain analysis. It addresses the computational emphasis of modern hydrology and provides a balanced approach to important applications in watershed analysis, floodplain computation, flood control, urban hydrology, stormwater design, and computer modeling. This text is perfect for engineers and hydrologists.   The book does have large sections on SWMM 5 and HEC-RAS along with Radar Rainfall and 2D flow modeling. From Amazon 

How Does Horton Infiltration Work in SWMM 5?

Image
How Does Horton Infiltration Work in SWMM 5? by  dickinsonre This sketch summarizes what happens in a SWMM 5 Subcatchment for Horton Infiltration during a storm event: 1.         The event starts out with the potential infiltration rate at the maximum infiltration rate but 2.        Decay starts happening right away and the potential infiltration rate starts decreasing until it reaches the minimum infiltration rate (assuming the storm last long enough), 3.        The actual infiltration rate is the minimum of the rainfall rate or the potential infiltration rate, 4.        Using the Huff distributions for rainfall the runoff does not start happening until the rainfall rate exceeds the potential infiltration rate in these models 5.        The runoff ceases after the rainfall rate becomes less than the current potential infiltr...

Subject:   Rules for NRSCS Unit Hydrographs in InfoSWMM Rules for NRSCS Unit Hydrographs in InfoSWMM and H2OMap SWMM by  dickinsonre Subject:   Rules for NRSCS Unit  Hydrographs in InfoSWMM  and H2OMap SWMM Rules or Guidelines for NRSCS Unit Hydrographs if used as the Hydrology Option in InfoSWMM and H2OMAP SWMM: 1.        The Unit Hydrograph CN comes from the Subcatchment Table and the NRCS_CN Column 2.       Time of Concentration is from the TC column in the Subcatchment Table 3.       The Infiltration Model should be from the CN infiltration Model Column in the Subcatchment Database Table 4.       The CN in the Soil Database Table should be the same as the CN in the Subcatchment Database Table 5.     ...

InfoSWMM v11.1 Changes to Date

InfoSWMM v11.1: Support ArcGIS 10.1. InfoSWMM or H2OMAP SWMM import: corrected the typos in error messages. (HsHxfSvr.dll, N/A, 6/22/2012) Improvement: for better hours/minutes listing in Report Manager Report Table for Continuous Simulation with Odd Report Time Step Intervals.  For example, this fix improved the output time display for irregular (in 60 minute sense) output time steps.  Now it displays 00:50, 01:40, etc. more correctly than before (00:49, 01:39, etc). (HsOutPkg.dll, N/A, 6/21/2012) Improvement or Bug Fix: Added an IF statement to the RDII Unit Hydrograph Convolution for the  rare instances in which the user sets the time base of the UH to zero by setting either T or K to zero.  The Time Base is T*K in the convolution integral and zero values are not allowed.  This bug was also forwarded to the EPA for a future SWMM 5.  The convolution uses the value of R and the Time Base to estimate the amount of Infiltration and Inflow in the Sewer Networ...
