Abstract:Due to the lack of numerical modeling and continuous in-situ monitoring
of flow and sediment transport data, the mechanism of local-scale
morphodynamic processes during very large floods are not fully
understood. Thus, this study employs Delft3D to develop a
two-dimensional (2-D) morphodynamic model to simulate and analyze the
morphodynamic process of a gravel-bed river during an 80-year flood
event in Calgary, Canada. The model was calibrated using velocimetry
data and validated against the measured post-floo… Show more
