Abstract The one-dimensional HEC-RAS multi-purpose open channel flow modeling software was successfully used, with ArcMap and HEC-GeoRAS, to simulate flow over the Wappapello Dam limited-use Ogee spillway (Wappapello, Missouri). Initial computational hydraulic modeling results predicted a lake elevation of 132.9 m (405.0 ft) [NAVD 1988] would be required for the resulting floodwaters overtopping the spillway to reach the nearby Wappapello Lake Management Office. An intense rainfall event during 2011 led to the spillway being overtopped for the first time since 1945. Spillway performance during the 2011 event was analyzed afterwards. Results indicated that the spillway crest was not submerged by backwater. A technique was employed which successfully estimated the design energy head of 7.160 m (23.49 ft) for the spillway. Hydraulic modeling developed after the 2011 event incorporated this estimated design energy head, allowing the spillway discharge coefficient to vary with discharge in the course of an unsteady modeling run. Results indicated that, while the spillway did perform as designed, the performance is limited by the shallow approach depth.

Swmm Model

This study proposes a methodology for the calibration of combined sewer overflow (CSO), incorporating the results of the three-dimensional ANSYS CFX model in the SWMM one-dimensional model. The procedure consists of constructing calibration curves in ANSYS CFX that relate the input flow to the CSO with the overflow, to then incorporate them into the SWMM model. The results obtained show that the behavior of the flow over the crest of the overflow weir varies in space and time. Therefore, the flow of entry to the CSO and the flow of excesses maintain a non-linear relationship, contrary to the results obtained in the one-dimensional model. However, the uncertainty associated with the idealization of flow methodologies in one dimension is reduced under the SWMM model with kinematic wave conditions and simulating CSO from curves obtained in ANSYS CFX. The result obtained facilitates the calibration of combined sewer networks for permanent or non-permanent flow conditions, by means of the construction of curves in a three-dimensional model, especially when the information collected in situ is limited.

Abstract We report on the observation and characterization of broad-band waveguiding of surface gravity waves in an open channel, in the shallow water limit. The waveguide is constructed by changing locally the depth of the fluid layer, which creates conditions for surface waves to propagate along the generated guide. We present experimental and numerical results of this shallow water waveguiding, which can be straightforwardly matched to the one-dimensional water wave equation of shallow water waves. Our work revitalizes water waveguiding research as a relevant and controllable experimental setup to study complex phenomena using waveguide geometries.

In this paper, we study for the first time the inverse initial problem for the one-dimensional strongly damped wave with Gaussian white noise data. Under some a priori assumptions on the true solution, we propose the Fourier truncation method for stabilizing the ill-posed problem. Error estimates are given in both the L2– and Hp–norms.

Abstract This paper investigates the topological structure of the set of the positive solutions of the one-dimensional quasilinear indefinite Neumann problem \begin{dcases}-\Bigg{(}\frac{u^{\prime}}{\sqrt{1+{u^{\prime}}^{2}}}\Bigg{)}^{% \prime}=\lambda a(x)f(u)\quad\text{in }(0,1),\\ u^{\prime}(0)=0,\quad u^{\prime}(1)=0,\end{dcases} where {\lambda\in\mathbb{R}} is a parameter, {a\in L^{\infty}(0,1)} changes sign, and {f\in C^{1}(\mathbb{R})} is positive in {(0,+\infty)} . The attention is focused on the case {f(0)=0} and {f^{\prime}(0)=1} , where we can prove, likely for the first time in the literature, a bifurcation result for this problem in the space of bounded variation functions. Namely, the existence of global connected components of the set of the positive solutions, emanating from the line of the trivial solutions at the two principal eigenvalues of the linearized problem around 0, is established. The solutions in these components are regular, as long as they are small, while they may develop jump singularities at the nodes of the weight function a, as they become larger, thus showing the possible coexistence along the same component of regular and singular solutions.

Harper Equation

Proofs are given for the first time that the energy-spectrum of the Harper-equation can be derived in a closed implicit form by using the one-dimensional limit of the 1/N-description. Explicitly solvable cases are discussed in some more detail for Δ=1. Here Δ expresses the Harper-parameter discriminating between metallic (Δ<1) and insulator (Δ>1) phases. Related magnetizations have been established by applying both Dingle- and quantum-gas approaches, now for a fixed value of the Fermi-level. The first description leads to large paramagnetic-like magnetizations oscillating with nearly field-independent amplitudes increasing with the temperature. In the second case one deals with magnetization-oscillations centered around the zero-value, such that the amplitudes decrease both with the field and the temperature.

An analytic solution of the non-isentropic equations of gas-dynamics, for the one-dimensional motion of a non-viscous and non-conductive medium, is derived in this paper for the first time. This is a particular solution which contains only one arbitrary function. On the basis of this solution, the interaction of a centred simple wave with a shock of moderate strength is analyzed; and it is shown that, for a weak shock, this analysis is compatible with Friedrichs's theory. Furthermore, in the light of this analysis, it is explained why the empirical methods employed by the shock-expansion theory, including Whitham's rule for determining the shock path, work.

This is the final paper in a series of four, concerning the surface 𝕋 × 𝕋 embedded in ℂℙ8, where 𝕋 is the one-dimensional torus. In this paper we compute the fundamental group of the Galois cover of the surface with respect to a generic projection onto ℂℙ2, and show that it is nilpotent of class 3. This is the first time such a group is presented as the fundamental group of a Galois cover of a surface.

The Mississippi River between New Madrid, MO, and Hickman, KY, is of particular interest because of divergent trends in water surface profiles at the upstream and downstream ends of the reach. This report documents the investigation of the bathymetry, geology, and hydraulics of this segment of the river. The report shows that the area near River Mile 901 above Head of Passes strongly affects the river stages at low flows. This part of the river can experience high shear stresses when flows fall below 200,000 cfs, as opposed to most other locations where shear stress increases with flow. One-dimensional hydraulic modeling was also used to demonstrate that an increase of depth at a single scour hole, such as the one downstream from Hickman near River Mile 925, is unlikely to cause reach-wide degradation.
