Flood Analysis Using Integrated HEC-RAS and GIS: A Case Study of Nashik city, India
Abstract: The developmental activities in the urban areas are severely affecting the river flow pattern of the rivers; especially the rivers which pass through the urban habitation are causing heavy floods. The effect of encroachment in the city limits due to urbanization reduces the flow path of rivers causing flooding in adjacent areas. The available data indicates that causalities due to increased frequency of occurrence of flood have increased from 1000 …

Assessing Flow Pattern of Sabarmati River Portion at Hirpura Barrage Site Gujarat, India Using HEC-RAS Hydrodynamic Models and Physical Models
Abstract: A barrage is proposed to be constructed across river Sabarmati, 60 km downstream of Daroi dam to create reservoir within the bank for recharging and meeting water demand of nearby areas. For analyzing the flow pattern and assessing the hydraulic parameters of Hipura barrage on Sabarmati river near Hirpura village of Mehsana District of Gujarat, a 3D physical model with geometrically similar scale 1:80 for river reach 3 km (1 …

Bridge Scour by HEC-RAS Model: A Case Study over Ganga Bridge
Abstract: Lacey’s equation is often used to find out the scour depth in rivers in India. Lacey’s regime formula (1930) was developed on the basis of limited field data from irrigation canals in Punjab Province having discharge ranges from 0.70 to 173 m3/s. The total scour at a highway crossing is comprised of three mechanisms: long-term aggradation-degradation, contraction of reach, and local scours at piers and abutments. In the present study, …

Flood Frequency Analysis of Big Akaki River, Awash Basin, Ethiopia
Abstract: Flood is one of the most dangerous naturally occurring catastrophic hazards now days displacing and killing people and destroying properties. During high flow, the Big Akaki River flooded the vicinity of the area and causes loss of cultivated land and life. Flood water inundates the floodplain areas and cause vast damages to life and property. The main objective of this paper is to analyze the inundation area along the Big …

Floodplain Inundation Modeling and Mapping for Geray River: Nile Basin, Ethiopia
Abstract: Flood is among the most devastating natural hazards in the world claiming lives and properties more than any other natural phenomena. During high flow, the Geray River flooded the vicinity of the area and causes loss of cultivated land and life. The objective of this study describes the flood extent and depth in the Geray River for different flow conditions. This research involves the integration of HEC-HMS, HEC-RAS, and GIS …

A Feasibility Analysis on New Drainage Channel to Control Flooding in Southwest Chennai Using Hydraulic Model
Abstract: Flood Management plays a major role in minimizing the socio-economic loss in a watershed. In the urban context, flood is due to uncontrolled settlements of migrated population along the length of surplus carrying channels. This study focuses on feasibility analysis of existing drainage channel and proposed drainage channel network as structural management measure for a watershed, proposed by public work department of Chennai to reduce the impact of flood. In …

Polymer Composite-Enabled UAV Platform for Edge AI-Based Precision Agriculture: A System-Level Evaluation
Abstract: This study investigates the system-level role of commercially available polymer composite materials in enabling lightweight and energy-efficient unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) platforms integrated with edge artificial intelligence for real-time agricultural monitoring. Rather than developing or experimentally characterizing new composite materials, the work evaluates fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites and epoxy-based laminates as enabling structural components whose established properties support UAV performance in precision agriculture. Their high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and …
