  3. 12. Combining Continuous and Event-based Hydrological Modeling in Kävlinge River Basin with HEC-HMS

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Wenli Hu; [2022]
    Keywords : HEC-HMS; SCS-CN; Climate Change; GIS; Flood; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Prediction of flood and evaluation of the impact of climate change in a catchment needs to be correctly estimated, which can be accomplished by hydrological modelling in HEC-HMS. In this paper, the objectives were to gain an understanding of the rainfall-runoff process and estimate the flood frequency curve in the Kävlinge River Basin. READ MORE

  4. 13. Impact of Extreme River Flows on Bridges An Application to River Lagan in Ljungby Municipality, Sweden Using HEC RAS

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Assad Mohammad Tahir; [2022]
    Keywords : HEC RAS; Extreme River Flow; River Bridges; Ljungby; Lagan; Climate Change.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The role of bridges in the transportation network has become increasingly important as they ensure the smooth and safe passage of people and goods across rivers and other bodies of water. Flowing water impacts bridges over rivers primarily in two ways: (1) Hydrodynamic forces that directly impact the structure and (2) scouring at the pier and abutment, including contraction scour.

  5. 14. Modelling the Human-Flood Interactions : Effects of different societal risk perceptions on flood losses

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Zhixian Hu; [2022]
    Keywords : Socio-hydrological modelling; risk perception; flood risk management; Sociohydrologisk modellering; riskperception; hantering av översvämningsrisk;

    Abstract : Can one society’s flood risk perception and management strategy impact the neighbouring society? This study applies a socio-hydrological model to four ideal types of society living along the same river. These societies have various rationalities and risk perceptions: risk-controlling, risk-monitoring, risk- neglecting and risk-downplaying. READ MORE

  6. 15. Case Study of Discharge Modeling for Nissan River in Halmstad Municipality

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Federico Vega Ezpeleta; [2022]
    Keywords : Machine learning; Random Forrest Regression; Linear Regression; Discharge modeling; ERA5; CMIP6;

    Abstract : Changes in precipitation patterns, temperature, and other climatic variables have been shown to modify thehydrological cycle and hydrological systems, potentially resulting in a shift in river runoff behavior and an increasedrisk of floods. There have been several instances of devastating floods throughout Europe’s history, which haveresulted in devastation and enormous economic losses. READ MORE
