Flood risk in past and future: A case study for the Pawtuxet River's record-breaking March 2010 flood event. [PDF]
Abstract In March 2010, a sequence of three major rainfall events in New England (United States) led to a record‐breaking flooding event in the Pawtuxet River Watershed with a peak flow discharge of about 500‐year return period. After development of hydrological and hydraulic models, a number of factors that played important roles in the impact of this

Influence of Turbulence Models on Simulated Flow Characteristics Over Ogee Spillways
The study investigated the simulation of flow characteristics over an Ogee-type spillway surface. This research utilizes a Flow-3D numerical model that builds upon the findings from prior experimental data and numerical models simulated by Ansys with a ...

Flow over Ogee Spillway: Physical and Numerical Model Case Study
A study was completed to compare flow parameters over a standard ogee-crested spillway using a physical model, numerical model, and existing literature. The physical model was constructed of Plexiglas and placed in a test flume. Pressure taps were installed along the entire length of the spillway.

Numerical Investigation of the Flow Field on the Ogee Spillway under the Influence of the Crest Shape and Slope of the Upstream Face of the Spillway [PDF]
In this study, the ogee spillway flow pattern under the influence of the spillway curve shape and upstream slope changes was evaluated using Flow-3D numerical simulator software.

Discharge coefficients for ogee spillways
Abstract Discharge over an ogee weir is related to the length of the weir, upstream total head above the weir crest and the discharge coefficient. The discharge coefficient is influenced by several factors; in this study, some parameters that influence discharge coefficients of ogee weirs are investigated. These factors include: the weir

Experimental Investigation of Energy Dissipation in Ogee Spillway Using New Distributions of Dissipation Blocks [PDF]
Ogee spillway is the most important structure used to get rid of excess water during flood. Scouring phenomenon occurring in the downstream region due to high energy dissapation is an envitable.

Investigation of turbulent flows using spillway models aiming to aid downstream migration of fish
Abstract Dams and other flow control structures constitute obstacles to upstream and downstream aquatic habitats, reducing life‐cycle success and even eliminating diadromous and potamodromous fish species from river basins. Providing effective passage past hydroelectric dams is critical for restoring habitat connectivity and sustaining populations of ...

Abstract This study presents a novel stochastic simulation–optimization approach for optimum designing of flood control dam through incorporation of various sources of uncertainties. The optimization problem is formulated based on two objective functions, namely, annual cost of dam implementation and dam overtopping probability, as those are the two ...
