Flood Characteristics and Design Flood for Flood Protection in Lower Yellow River
1989The Yellow River is the second largest river in China, flowing through Qinghai, Sichuan, Gansu, Ningxia, Inner Mongolia, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Henan, and Shandong provinces as well as autonomous regions. The total length of the Yellow River is 5,464 km, with a drainage area of 752,400 sg.km.

Reliability-Based Design of Flood Defenses and Flood Defense Systems
Water International, 2005The combination of a quantitative reliability analysis with minimization of the construction cost is presented as a tool for the design of flood defenses. It is shown that the method can be used on the level of individual structures and on the level of systems of flood defenses.

Miscible Flood - Field Facility Design
Journal of Canadian Petroleum Technology, 1986ABSTRACT This paper summarizes the design, selection, installation and operationalaspects of hydrocarbon miscible flood field facilities. Field facilitiesdiscussed include solvent and gas, fresh and produced water injectionpipelines, double block and bleed system, and injection wellhead.

Design Flood for Cañafisto Dam
1987This paper presents the process of estimating the design flood for a large dam located in the equatorial region. The method applied was to estimate an exceptional synthetic storm and consequently, the corresponding hydrograph. Advantage was taken of techniques for evaluating storm potential, developed for temperate latitudes. The peak flow was computed

Estimating design floods in Norway considering distinct flood generation mechanisms
2020<p>In the traditional flood frequency analysis, researchers typically assume the flood events result from a homogeneous flood population. However, actually flood events are likely to be generated by distinct flood generation mechanisms (FGMs), such as snowmelt-induced floods and rainfall-induced floods. To address this problem in

Designing Grass Cultivars for Droughts and Floods
2012Temperate productive grasslands are often located in areas of high rainfall prone to flooding, but even here moderate summer droughts occur with regularity causing significant yield reductions. Grasslands capable of resisting both water excess and deficit are required.

Design flood or design water level ? The département du Gard's flood attenuation dams example
2009Suite à l'événement exceptionnel de septembre 2002, le Conseil Général du Gard, propriétaire de 5 barrages écrêteurs de crue, a décidé de procéder à la révision des études hydrologiques de ces ouvrages. Les méthodes SHYPRE et SHYREG ont été mises en ½uvre par HYDRIS Hydrologie, parallèlement à une approche classique utilisée par BRLi.

The 100 year design flood assessment for flood zoning
2007This guide provides a review of methodologies for flood frequency analysis and gives examples of application in France. It has been edited by the French Ministry of Ecology for administrative offices and private companies in charge of hydrological studies for flood zoning.

Flood Frequency Hydrology: Navigating Uncertainty in Flood Design
Flood frequency analysis is a cornerstone of hydrologic studies, providing a probabilistic framework to relate the magnitude of extreme events to their frequency of occurrence. This methodology is critical for designing flood-related infrastructure, conducting economic evaluations of flood control projects, and delineating floodplains.openaire +1 more source
