| Alawai |
8/15/2009
|
The Alawai model simulates Hawaiin coast floodplain flooding This model has a rainfall/runoff hydrorgraph with with channel below sea level and urban features. |
| 8/15/2009 | Alawai Tsunami is a tsunami/storm surge model built on the original Alawai model It simulates with a 20 minute tsunami wave over the urban area and channel. | |
| Barn | 8/15/2009 | The Barnard Creek model is an example of a mudflow through an urban area with streets and houses. |
| CA Aqueduct | 8/15/2009 | Use this 15 mile project to calibrate the FLO-2D channel component to a concrete canal with a 8,100 cfs discharge. |
| Diamond | 8/15/2009 | This is a watershed model with uniform rainfall and infiltration conditions. |
| Flume Case D | 8/15/2009 | This is a hypothetical flume model to check the accuracy of the FLO-2D model. The analog solution of the velocity and depth for steady, uniform flow is known. |
| Goat | 8/15/2009 | The Goat Camp Creek model is an example of natural channel flooding with a confluence, bridge and overland urban flooding. |
| Levee Breach | 8/15/2009 | The levee breach model is an example of a floodplain flooding from multiple levee breaches. |
| Monroe |
8/15/2009
|
The Monroe Creek alluvial fan model simulates channel overbank flooding The channel has multiple channel geometry conditions. |
| Rio Grande |
8/15/2009
|
The Rio Grande model has a 170 mile natural channel bordered by levees. It has numerous bridges and diversion dams. |
| Truckee | 8/15/2009 | The Truckee River model simulations urban flooding from a river channel. |
| Whiskey | 8/15/2009 | Whiskey Pete’s alluvial fan model is a large unconfined flood over a classic conically shaped alluvial fan. |
RiverFLO-2D Example Projects Top |

|
8/15/2009
|
This is an application of RiverFLO-2D to a morphological study in the Apure River in Venezuela. A 6 Km reach of the river was evaluated both for hydrodynamics and sediment transport. |
|
| Dambreak 2-D |
8/15/2009
|
In this project the RiverFLO-2D model results are compared with experimental dam-break flood measurements from a laboratory study. The test involves the advance of a dam-break flood wave over a triangular obstacle located on a horizontal concrete bed channel. |
| H DAM |
8/15/2009
|
This test consists in the propagation of a dam break wave in a frictionless rectangular channel with two separate tanks. |
| Hoh |
8/15/2009
|
This is a RiverFLO-2D application to support bank protection designs along a reach of the Hoh River in Washington, USA. The model was used to evaluate existing conditions, and several bank protection structures. |
| Malpasset Dam Break |
8/15/2009
|
This project shows the application of RiverFLO-2D model to the well known Malpasset dam-break accident. This is considered a challenging test for 2D free surface flow models due to the high gradients, high and irregular bed slopes and mostly dry areas in the river valley. |
| Static Cone |
8/15/2009
|
The goal of this test is to evaluate the model performance under static dry and wet mesh conditions. |
| Three Islands |
8/15/2009
|
This project illustrates dynamic flooding with drying and wetting bed. An unsteady inflow hydrograph generates a flood wave that creates dry and wet bed conditions over a topography that includes three islands of different elevations. |
| Tidal Channel |
8/15/2009
|
This project compares RiverFLO-2D results with analygical solution for a tidal channel. |
| Tous Dam Break |
8/15/2009
|
This project shows a full scale application of RiverFLO-2D to the Tour Dam break that occurred in 1982 in Spain. |
| Uniform Flow |
8/15/2009
|
The purpose of this project is to verify the RiverFLO-2D model performance to replicate uniform flow in a channel. |
