This document summarizes how the United States Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) Sedimentation and River Hydraulics – Two Dimension (SRH-2D) software performed in the two-dimensional (2D) modeling benchmark tests developed by the United Kingdom's (UK) Joint Defra (Department for Environmental Food and Rural Affairs) Environment Agency. These tests were developed under Defra's Flood and Coastal Erosion Risk Management Research and Development (R&D) program's two-dimensional research project. The purpose of performing these tests with SRH-2D is to demonstrate that the SRH-2D two-dimensional modeling capabilities can produce similar results to the two-dimensional models documented by the United Kingdom Environment Agency and the Hydrologic Engineering Center (HEC) River Analysis System (HEC-RAS) research reports. The tests summarized in this document were run with SRH-2D Version 3.3.
This document is intended to be a comprehensive guide to the use of two-dimensional hydraulic modeling for highways in the river environment. With the...
Computer models are used every day to analyze river systems for a wide variety of reasons vital tothe public interest. For decades most hydraulic engi...
