Paper Description

Edit Paper Description Content
This paper covers hydrologic and hydraulic modelling for civil engineering projects, including methodologies of hydrological data analysis, rainfall-runoff modelling, hydrologic and hydraulic flood routing, and stormwater analysis planning.
Edit Paper Description Content

Paper Structure

Edit Paper Structure Content

This paper includes three main parts.

The first part focuses on the preparation of geospatial data for creating shapefiles and visualisations,

The second part will focus on advanced hydrology and mechanisms of surface runoff and the development of catchment models.

The last part of the paper concentrates on flood routing and hydraulic models of flood plains.
