reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA604359 | Open PDF

Abstract:

This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note CHETN summarizes the development and initial testing of new sediment transport and modeling tools developed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers USACE, Institute for Water Resources IWR, Hydrologic Engineering Center HEC, to increase the functionality of numerical modeling of sediment transport within the USACE HEC River Analysis System HEC-RAS software package and to determine its applicability to Regional Sediment Management RSM challenges.
