| Abstract | A nonlinear, deterministic, lumped-parameter model for channel routing
is developed, which is equivalent tm the kinematic wave approaches with inflow
hydrograph at an upstream point and lateral inflow for a single reach of the
streams .
A four parameter nonlinear storage function model is calibrated to
kinematic wave solutions by varying the shapes of triangular upstream and
lateral inflow hydrographs; the mode l parameters are identified using an
optimization technique . In the verification process, the storage-routing parameters are correlated with t he kinematic-wave parameters as well as the
up stream and lateral input characteristics.
The proposed model makes the channel routing procedures considerably more
useful than the kinematic routing, maintaining the same physical and hydraulic
characteristics, a nd reduces much computational time and effort. |
