Flood Modelling
A half-day course covering techniques for using 12d Model to generate HEC-RAS projects, and to display the results of the HEC RAS analysis in 12d Model.
In this course you will learn the process for generating a HEC RAS project from data prepared inside 12d Model, then reading the results of the analysis back into 12d for display and plotting.
The 12d Model Flood Modelling training course will equip you with powerful techniques to generate HEC-RAS projects, and read the results of the analysis back into 12d Model.
12d Model Flood Modelling training course
A half day course covering techniques for using 12d Model to generate HEC-RAS projects, and to display the results of the HEC RAS analysis in 12d Model.
Prerequisites: Introduction to 12d Model course.
In this course you will learn the process for generating a HEC RAS project from data prepared inside 12d Model, then reading the results of the analysis back into 12d for display and plotting.
Course Outline
- Reading survey data into 12d Model, and triangulating that data to create a surface.
- Inspecting contours, and determining the location of overbanks.
- Locating cross sections along the channel (both manually, and automatically).
- Using 12d Model to create a HEC-RAS “Project”.
- Using HEC RAS to determine flood water levels along the channel.
- Adding “Interpolated” cross sections in HEC-RAS and reading these back to 12d Model.
- Reading the flood water levels back into 12d Model, and forming a water surface.
- The use of “Shape” strings, and HEC-RAS “Interpolated” sections.
- Creating depth contours, and colouring the water surface by depth.
- Creating a Perspective view of the channel, showing the area of inundation.
- plotting longitudinal profiles, and cross sections of the channel.
- As well as giving the user hands-on experience in the use of the 12d Model / HEC-RAS interface, this course will also explore the methods and assumptions that 12d Model uses when exchanging data with HEC RAS.
