A GPU-Accelerated Hydrodynamic Model for Urban Rainstorm Inundation Simulation: A Case Study in China

Based on the hydrodynamic model and wind field data, a multi-module coupled oil spill model is constructed for simulating the trajectory of oil movement. A case study is researched in Bohai Bay. The model works well and the numerical simulation results show the model is suitable for oil spill trajectory simulation. Two cases are considered with and without wind to show its important influence for the oil spill.

Geometric Transitions

Grass cover erosion by overtopping waves is one of the main failure mechanisms of dikes. Transitions in cover type and geometry can increase the hydraulic load and are therefore identified as vulnerable locations for grass cover erosion. Two models are applied to the inner slope of the Afsluitdijk in the Netherlands to show how transitions can be included in overtopping models. Firstly, the analytical grass-erosion model is used to simulate the erosion depth along the profile for a six-hour storm. The model results show that the erosion depth is maximal at the end of the two slopes in the profile. Secondly, the effect of transitions on the hydraulic load is computed with a detailed hydrodynamic model. The model results show that geometric transitions significantly influence the shear stress, the normal stress and the pressure. Four vulnerable locations for grass cover erosion are identified based on the model results that are related to slope changes along the profile. Furthermore, the model results show that the overtopping flow is mainly affected by geometric transitions, while no effect of roughness transitions on the modelled forces was observed.Recorded Presentation from the vICCE (YouTube Link): https://youtu.be/t1cPJwf72nE

AbstractsThe towing of unprotected icebergs from the Antarctic continent (66° S.) to latitude 38° S. has been simulated using an explicit hydrodynamic model and an extended two-dimensional melting model. It was found that nominal towing accelerations in excess of 2 × 10-5m s-2were required to deliver ice over this route in most circumstances, and minimum energy consumptions were obtained at accelerations around 10-4m s-2. Unprotected icebergs could be delivered with about 50% yield to latitude 38° S., but the rate of deterioration in the warm waters indicates that protection would be required for longer journeys. The towing simulation was most sensitive to north-south current components, the total towing distance and the rate of iceberg deterioration. Efforts directed towards locating suitable icebergs in the region 50° S. to 60° S., and towards increasing knowledge of the changing current patterns in the Southern Ocean would be most valuable, as would a knowledge of the mechanisms and rates of deterioration of icebergs in warm seas.
