Optimal operation of a system of flood control reservoirsFlavell, David Richard January 1974 (has links)
This thesis describes a study of the application of linear programming, a mathematical optimization technique, to the problem of operating a system of flood control reservoirs in the most efficient way for maximum flood peak reduction. The reservoir system studied was one which is proposed for flood control in the Fraser River Basin and for which preliminary designs have been made. The proposed sites are in the headwater areas of the river basin, remote from the area to be protected.
A channel routing method which was linear was required for use with the linear programming technique. A method was developed which was based on monoclinal wave theory.
Several different cases were studied in which the reservoir capacities and combinations of reservoirs included in the system were varied. The results show the maximum regulation which is available from each combination of reservoirs and identify the minimum storage capacities required at each site. Application of the technique in planning studies and in real-time reservoir operation is discussed. / Applied Science, Faculty of / Civil Engineering, Department of / Graduate

Evaluation of flood forecasting-response systemsKrzysztofowicz, Roman 01 1900 (has links)
Report to Hydrology Laboratory, Office of Hydrology,
National Weather Service, NOAH, Dept. of Commerce,
Contract 6 -35229 / The value of a forecast system in preventing urban property damage
depends on the accuracy of the forecasts, the time at which they are received,
the response by the floodplain dweller and the êfficacy of that response.
A systems model of the overall flood forecast -response system is developed.
Evaluation of the system is accomplished by a decision theoretic methodology.
A case study is done for Milton, Pennsylvania, which evaluates the present
system and potential changes to it. It is concluded that the sequential
nature of the forecast sequence must be considered in modeling the flood
forecast -response system if a meaningful evaluation of the economic value of
the system is to be obtained. Methodology for obtaining the parameterization
of the model from the available data is given. Computer programs have been
written to handle a good portion of the calculations. While more work is
needed on obtaining accurate parameterization of certain parts of the model,
such as the actual response to forecasts; use of the procedures and programs
as they now stand produces reasonable evaluations.

Vyhodnocení povodňové situace na vybrané části toku / Analysis of flood situation on selected part of riverŠtěpánová, Markéta January 2017 (has links)
The thesis deals with an evaluation of flood situation at the area of the river Svitava in Brno throughout three different flows Q5, Q20 a Q100 and that proposes a possible solution for flood protection. Current state of the river stream is evaluated through hydraulic calculation combining 1D and 2D numerical modelling of flow rate with the use of HEC-RAS software.

An assessment of community flood vulnerability and adaptation: A case study of Greater Tzaneen Local Municipality, South AfricaMunyai, Rendani Bigboy 18 September 2017 (has links)
MENVSC (Geography) / Department of Geography and Geo-Information Sciences / The Limpopo lowveld is at risk of floods from tropical storms from the South West Indian Ocean. The flood risk is particularly high in low altitude areas with poor infrastructure and limited resources. This study assessed flood vulnerability and adaptation at Lenyenye, Ga-Kgapane Masakaneng and Nkowankowa Section B and C within the Mopani District in the Limpopo Province of South Africa. The research objectives were to establish the determinants of flood vulnerability, assess the levels of flood vulnerability and the community‟s coping strategies.
A quantitative survey approach was employed using questionnaires which were administered to affected households to identify determinants of flood vulnerability, indicators and coping strategies by communities. A qualitative survey was also undertaken to supplement the information obtained from the quantitative survey. Key informant interviews were conducted with disaster management authorities in the study area to provide information on indicators, flood experience, adaptation and mitigation measures. Field observations were undertaken to observe the physical landscape and flood impacts. Secondary data were acquired through records, maps, Census 2011 and from the South African Weather Service. Collected data were imputed into the flood vulnerability index to measure the level of flood vulnerability. The results of this study will contribute to flood disaster risk reduction in the lowveld.
The results indicate that flood vulnerability in the study areas is determined by dwelling quality, poor or lack of drainage, education levels, employment status, rainfall amount and topography. The calculated flood vulnerability levels in the three case study villages indicate that Ga-Kgapane Masakaneng, Lenyenye and Nkowankowa Section B and C have a „vulnerability to floods‟ level. However, the FVI also showed that the economic aspect scored a high vulnerability to floods in Ga-Kgapane. In Nkowankowa Section B and C; physical component obtained a „high vulnerability to floods.‟ Major coping strategies in the three case villages were: making „Le-guba‟ around houses; sand-bags; making a furrow and channel around houses and on roads; temporary relocation and lastly relocating to a safer area. Key recommendations are public awareness; integrating modern mitigations with local knowledge; development of programs to ensure resilience through incorporation of (Integrated Development Planning) IDP and flood management and flood early warning system.
