Abstract:Findings in this report include: differences in the flow divisions for multiple opening bridges for all
three models, less subjectivity in the construction of the 2D models than for the 1D, differences in the
sensitivity of each 2D model to the Manning’s roughness coefficient, great similarity in the expansion
and contraction rates at bridges for the 2D models when using the full momentum equations with HECRAS
2D, differences in the response of the two-dimensional models at steady state conditions to vortex
shedding through bridge openings with cylindrical piers, shorter computation times for HEC-RAS 2D
than SRH-2D using highly comparable model setups, and in general, higher depths predicted by SRH-
2D than HEC-RAS 1D but the highest depths overall predicted by the HEC-RAS 2D full momentum
model.
