Рассмотрены проблемы построения интегрированных (комплексных) математических моделей фильтрации флюидов в пластах и течения газожидкостных смесей (ГЖС, т.е....

Model-supported real-time flood control requires the development of effective and efficient hydraulic models. As large numbers of iterations are to be executed in optimization procedures, the hydraulic model needs to be computationally efficient. At the same time, it is also required to generate...

We have studied the shrinkage-crack patterns formed in the process of drying of clay/water slurries employing simple laboratory experiments. Both isotropic and directional drying was studied. The objective has been to examine the correlation between the solvent, materials parameters and the...

The 4th IPCC report highlights the increased vulnerability of the coastal areas from floods due to sea-level rise (SLR). The existing coastal flood control structures in Bangladesh are not adequate to adapt these changes and new measures are urgently necessary. It is important to determine the...

Numerical modelling is used to assess the effect of a turbine array on tidal currents in the Tory Channel, New Zealand. The Tory Channel is the smaller of two entrances from Cook Strait to the Queen Charlotte Sound with a large island separating the narrow Tory Channel from the main entrance....

<Para ID="Par1">According to EU flood risks directive, flood hazard maps should include information on hydraulic characteristics of vulnerable locations, i.e. the inundated areas, water depths and velocities. These features can be assessed by the use of advanced hydraulic modelling tools which are presented in...</para>

<Para ID="Par1">The impoundment of the Three-Gorges-Dam (TGD) significantly alters the flow regimes in Poyang and Dongting Lakes, the two largest freshwater lakes in China by reducing river discharge. This work aims to investigate the impoundment effects of the TGD on lake outflow and water level and clarify...</para>

The purpose of this paper is to examine factorsinfluencing numerical simulations of tsunamis, andtheir implications for hazard mitigation. We focus ona specific finite element hydrodynamic model, chosenfor its role in the systematic development ofinundation maps for regions threatened primarily...

Many developing countries are very vulnerable to flood risk since they are located in climatic zones characterised by extreme precipitation events, such as cyclones and heavy monsoon rainfall. Adequate flood mitigation requires a routing mechanism that can predict the dynamics of flood waves as...

A detailed hydrodynamic model of the Lower Rideau River system has been constructed using the Mike11 modeling system of the Danish Hydraulic Institute. This river system is complex, comprising of channels, local drainage areas, lateral inflows, and a number of water control structures. The model...
