Hydraulic Modeling of a River Network for Predicting Flood Inundation using HEC-RAS and GIS Models - A Case Study in Southern Virginia
… a watershed located in south central Virginia. A HEC-RAS hydrodynamic model of the main river network was developed to assess the impact of a number of hydrologic events, including the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF), in the area of interest. The primary goal of the study was to transform discharge …

An Evaluation of a Hydrological Model Used to Predict the Impact of Flow Attenuation on Downstream Flood Flows
… results were compared with a hydraulic model, HEC-RAS, which is a standard tool for flood hazard prediction in the UK. HEC-RAS is not without its own uncertainties however, so the aim of the model comparison was to benchmark Overflow against an established model, rather than validating the …

Implementation of a one-dimensional hydrodynamic model for the Middle Paraguay River Basin
A steady 1D hydraulic model (HEC-RAS) was implemented for the Middle Paraguay River Basin (MPRB), which comprises a reach between Porto Murtinho, Brazil, and Asunción, Paraguay. In order to prepare the model, first the topo-bathymetry was prepared by digitizing more than 10,000 depth points from …
