Given a numerical model for solving two-dimensional shallow water equations, we are interested in the robustness of the simulation
by identifying the rate of change of the water depths and discharges with respect to a change in the bottom friction coefficients.
Such a sensitivity analysis can be carried out by computing the corresponding derivatives. Automatic differentiation (AD)
is an efficient numerical method, free of approximation errors, to evaluate derivatives of the objective function specified
by the computer program, Rubar20 for example. In this paper AD software tool Tapenade is used to compute forward derivatives. Numerical tests were done to show the robustness of the model and to demonstrate
the efficiency of these AD-derivatives. 相似文献

In this study, a three-dimensional model was used to numerically study the buoyant flow, along with its mixing characteristics, of heated water discharged from the surface and submerged side outfalls in shallow and deep water with a cross flow. Hydraulic experimental data were used to evaluate the applicability of the model. The simulation results agree well with the experimental results, particularly, the jet trajectories, the dimensions of the recirculating zone, and the distribution of the dimensionless excess temperature. The level of accuracy of the simulation results of the present study is nearly identical to that of the results conducted by McGuirk and Rodi (1978). If the heated water is discharged into shallow water where the momentum flux ratio and the discharge densimetric Froude number are high, the submerged discharge method is better than the surface discharge method in terms of the scale of the recirculating zone and the minimum dilution. In deep water, where the momentum flux ratio and discharge densimetric Froude number are low, however, the submerged discharge method had few advantages. In shallow water, the discharge jet is deflected by the ambient cross flow, while forcing the ambient flow to bend towards the far bank for the full depth. For a submerged discharge in shallow water, the recirculating zone is the largest in the lowest layer but becomes smaller in the upper layer. As the water depth increases, the ambient flow goes over the jet and diminishes the blocking effect, thereby decreasing the bending of the jet. 相似文献

We consider the problem of the vertically upwards disposal of heavy brine sewage from a two-dimensional diffuser in a lighter, homogeneous, motionless and shallow ambient sea. The rejected high salinity water of seawater desalination plants for urban and agricultural uses is such a case of a two dimensional fountain. The disposal of brine sewage produces a negative buoyant jet due to its initial momentum, which impinges on the free surface, spreads laterally on it and then sinks downwards, because of the negative buoyancy. Laboratory experiments and dimensional considerations are used in this paper in order to investigate the spreading behavior (width) of the vertical fountain which impinges on the free surface of the shallow ambient fluid. The experimental results have been used to derive an equation relating the width at the free surface with the initial parameters of the flow. In addition, the experimentally measured dilution of the heavier brine sewage on the recipient’s surface is compared with the dilution which was calculated by a numerical simulation of a well-known commercial software package, CORJET (a CORMIX sub model). 相似文献

Evaluation and application of a three-dimensional water quality model in a shallow lake with complex morphometry 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Fundamental hydrodynamic and ecological processes of a lake or reservoir could be adequately depicted by one-dimensional (1D) numerical simulation models. Whereas, lakes with significant horizontal water quality and hydrodynamic gradients due to their complex morphometry, inflow or water level fluctuations require a three-dimensional (3D) hydrodynamics and ecological analyses to accurately simulate their temporal and spatial dynamics. In this study, we applied a 3D hydrodynamic model (ELCOM) coupled with an ecological model (CAEDYM) to simulate water quality parameters in three bays of the morphologically complex Lake Minnetonka. A considerable effort was made in setting up the model and a systematic parameterization approach was adopted to estimate the value of parameters based on their published values. Model calibration covered the entire length of the simulation periods from March 29 to October 20, 2000. Sensitivity analysis identified the top parameters with the largest contributions to the sensitivity of model results. The model was next verified with the same setup and parameter values for the period of April 25 to October 10, 2005 against field data. Spatial and temporal dynamics were well simulated and model output results of water temperature (T), dissolved oxygen (DO), total phosphorus (TP) and one group of algae (Cyanobacteria) represented as chlorophyll a (Chla) compared well with an extensive field data in the bays. The results show that the use of the model along with an accurate bathymetry, a systematic calibration and corroboration (verification) process will help to analyze the hydrodynamics and geochemical processes of the morphologically complex Lake Minnetonka. An example of an ecological application of the model for Lake Minnetonka is presented by examining the effect of spatial heterogeneity on coolwater fish habitat analysis in 3D and under a scenario where horizontal spatial heterogeneity was eliminated (1D). Both analyses captured seasonal fish habitat changes and the total seasonal averages differed moderately. However, the 1D analysis did not capture local and short duration variabilities and missed suitable fish habitat variations of as much as 20%. The experiment highlighted the need for a 3D analysis in depicting ecological hot spots such as unsuitable fish habitats in Lake Minnetonka. 相似文献

A Riemann-solver scheme, using primitive variables rather than conserved variables, is configured and tuned for the solution of the fully-coupled two-dimensional shallow water and contaminant transport equations. This scheme is based on the unstructured finite volume discretization using primitive-variable Roe-flux approximation with an entropy fix. The primitive-variable flux associated with the exact source-term balancing is well-behaved and well-balanced for both still-water and dry regions with arbitrary bed topography. Second-order accuracy is used in space and time. The present study uses a nonlinear implicit scheme based on Newton-iterative algorithm for the time integration. In order to show the accuracy of the scheme, numerical results are verified by different test cases for contaminant advection and diffusion. A scenario of contaminant transport in a complex geometry with wet and dry elements is also simulated to demonstrate that the present work can be implemented on practical applications involving flooding and contaminant transport. 相似文献

Nested numerical scheme in a polar coordinate shallow water model for the coast of Bangladesh 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This study is concerned with the development of storm surge model to predict water level accurately due to surge associated with a cyclone along the coast of Bangladesh. Considering the funnel shape of the Bay of Bengal, coastal bending and the existence of off-shore islands, a vertically integrated model in cylindrical polar coordinate system is developed using nested numerical scheme. A fine mesh scheme capable of incorporating coastal bending and offshore islands properly in the numerical scheme is nested into a coarse mesh scheme covering up to 15° N latitude of the Bay of Bengal. The developed model is used to estimate water levels at different coastal and island stations associated with a few storms that hit the coast of Bangladesh. The computed surge levels compared well with observed ones and predicted surge levels investigated with different approaches. 相似文献

In this study we explore a rather unique time series (1979–2002) of catch data of the crayfish Astacus astacus in Lake Steinsfjorden (SE Norway) in combination with temperature data and data on Canadian pondweed Elodea canadensis coverage. In 1977, E. canadensis was for the first time observed in the lake. Over the following years, the plant established dense covers over large parts of the shallow areas, excluding the crayfish from these areas and causing a sudden drop in population size. A size-structured model with bi-stability including a range of observed stage-specific life-cycle attributes (e.g. growth, fecundity, fertility, sex-ratio), population specific parameters and density-dependant (shelters, cannibalism, unspecified predators, competition between individuals, catch, number of traps) as well as density independent factors (temperature and Elodea coverage) were constructed to evaluate the various drivers for the population dynamics, and as a predictive tool for assessing the effects of future changes. Our model revealed that the decline primarily was due to density-dependant effect of the Elodea expansion with reduced number of hides and thus increased risk for predation and cannibalism, but also that temperature played an important role related to recruitment. The model should be relevant for crayfish stock management in general, and by demonstrating the major role of temperature, it is also relevant for predicting population responses under a changing climate. The model should also be applicable to other crustaceans and species with discrete growth and late maturation. 相似文献

Estimating travel time of recharge water through a deep vadose zone using a transfer function model 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
We estimate the travel time of percolating water through a deep vadose zone at the regional scale using a transfer function model and a physical based conceptual flow model (Hydrus-1D), thereby exploiting the time series of precipitation, actual evapotranspiration and groundwater piezometry and generic vadose zone data. With the transfer function model we observe a high variability of estimated travel time varying from 0.9 to 3.1 years, corresponding to estimated vertical water flux velocities varying from 6.6 to 28.0 m/year. These results were compared with the travel time estimated from the physical based conceptual model. With the flow model, estimated travel time varies between 4.7 and 15.5 years, corresponding to water flux velocities varying between 1.7 and 4.1 m/year. The estimated travel time calculated with the flow model were therefore about five times larger than those estimated with the transfer function model. This could be explained by the fact that the transfer function model considers heterogeneous recharge from the vadose zone as well as from the vicinity of the piezometer through the so called “pushing effect”. In addition, the flow model requires various hydrogeological and hydrodynamic parameters which were estimated using generic parametrisation approaches, that are largely affected by uncertainty and may not reflect the local conditions. In contrast, the transfer function model only exploits available measurable time series and has the advantage of being site-specific. 相似文献

The gap model ZELIG was validated for red spruce–balsam fir–yellow birch and yellow birch–sugar maple–balsam fir forest types in southern Quebec, Canada. Long-term historical data originating from the Lake Edward Experimental Forest, La Mauricie National Park, were used. The effect of the variation in plot size, representing the space within which trees uptake site resources, was also examined. Several species were included in both forest types: red spruce (Picea rubens Sarg.), balsam fir (Abies balsamea (L.) Mill.), yellow birch (Betula alleghaniensis Britton), white birch (Betula papyrifera Marsh.), red maple (Acer rubrum L.), sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.), American beech (Fagus grandifolia Ehrh.), eastern hemlock (Tsuga canadensis (L.) Carr.) and northern white cedar (Thuja occidentalis L.). The pattern of change in basal area growth varied among species, ranging from a steady increase to a more or less rapid decline. There was a good agreement between observations and predictions for yellow birch, red spruce, red maple, sugar maple, balsam fir and northern white cedar. Plot size had a significant impact on the dynamics of the different species. Depending on the species, the decline was accelerated, the amplitude of the fluctuations varied, or the maximum basal area reached changed. Predicted regeneration varied among species and the number of seedlings generally increased with increase in plot size. The pattern of development for most species was related to their life characteristics. The results highlighted the fact that there is a critical lack of knowledge and data on the dynamics of regeneration from the seedling to the sapling stages for the two forest types studied, which resulted in poor predictions for some species. As the life characteristics varied among species, the use of only one plot size for all species may not be realistic. 相似文献

Algal blooms (ABs), which commonly occur in urbanised coastal marine environments worldwide, often result in hypoxia and even fish kills. Understanding the mechanism and providing accurate prediction of ABs’ formation and occurrence is of foremost importance in relation to the protection of sensitive marine resources. In this paper, a multivariate time series model, namely the vector autoregressive model with exogenous variables (VARX) and the long memory filter is proposed to model and predict ABs. To evaluate the effectiveness of this VARX model, both daily and 2-h field monitoring data of chlorophyll fluorescence (CHL), dissolved oxygen (DO), total inorganic nitrogen (TIN), water temperature (TEMP), solar radiation (SR) and wind speed (WS) obtained at Kat O, Hong Kong, between February 2000 and March 2003 were employed. Unlike the other data driven approaches, this VARX model not only provides more interpretable effects of specific lags of environmental factors, but also sheds light on the feedback effects of AB on these variables. In general, daily CHL measurements up to 4 days can provide crucial information for predicting algal dynamics, while the VARX model is able to explicitly reveal ecological relationships between CHL and other environmental factors. In addition, the application of long-memory filter can further extract patterns of seasonal variations which is thought to be correspondent to the variation of algal species in Hong Kong water. With a view to providing an early warning signal of AB to fishermen and regulatory authorities, an alarming system was developed based on the VARX model; it could achieve 83% correct prediction of AB occurrences with a lead time of 2.5 days. Concerning the forecast performance of the VARX model, daily forecasting performance is comparatively better than that of artificial neural network models. 相似文献

The scour around a long fixed pipeline placed just above a non-cohesive sandy bed is numerically simulated using an Eulerian
two-phase model that implements Euler–Euler coupled governing equations for fluid and solid phases and a modified k−ɛ turbulence closure for the fluid phase, the modeling system being a part of the CFD software package FLUENT. Both flow–particle
and particle–particle interactions are considered in the model. During the simulations, the interface between sand and water
is specified using a threshold volume fraction of sand, and the evolution of the bedforms is studied in detail. The predictions
of bedform evolution are in good agreement with previous laboratory measurements. Investigations into the mechanisms of scour
reveal that three sediment transport modes (bed-load, suspended-load and laminated-load) are associated with the scour development.
While some previously proposed scour development formulae for cylindrical objects are in good general agreement with the simulations,
scour prediction based on a commonly used operational mine-burial model (DRAMBUIE) shows disparities with present simulations. 相似文献

Development of a coupled reservoir operation and water diversion model: Balancing human and environmental flow requirements 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Maintaining a natural flow regime helps preserve the health of riverine ecosystems. Conventional studies on reservoir operations have focused mainly on identifying optimal operational schemes for satisfying human water demands. To systematically reflect the ecological effects of both natural and human-induced hydrologic alterations, water diversions downstream of the reservoirs should be considered as well. This research focused on a coupled reservoir operation and water diversion (CROWD) model, created through the integration of a reservoir operation model and a water diversion model. The proposed model considers both human and environmental flow requirements, and represents a compromise that balances ecological protection (preservation of the natural flow regime of a river) and human needs (reduced water shortages). In the reservoir operation model, the reservoir space is divided into three zones and different operating rules are developed for directing reservoir operation when water levels are in different zones; in the water diversion model, different water users are assigned different supply priorities with the instream flows no more than the minimum environmental flows having the highest priority; and the two models are coupled by the water mass balance between the two hydraulic facilities. The non-dominated-sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA-II) was used to determine the parameters of the developed CROWD model and the model was applied to support the joint operational management of the Tanghe Reservoir and the Liaoyang Diversion in the Tang river basin, China. The resulting reservoir operation and water diversion schemes indicate that the CROWD model is useful for optimizing the operation of reservoirs and water diversion schemes. Moreover, it helps to analyze tradeoffs between human and environmental water needs, resulting in solutions that reduce the risk of water shortages and minimize ecological integrity disturbances. 相似文献

This paper describes a comprehensive model of wastewater treatment in secondary facultative ponds, which combines 3D hydrodynamics with a mechanistic water quality model. The hydrodynamics are based on the Navier-Stokes equation for incompressible fluids under shallow water and Boussinesq assumptions capturing the flow dynamics along length, breadth and depth of the pond. The water quality sub model is based on the Activated Sludge Model (ASM) concept, describing COD and nutrient removal as function of bacterial growth following Monod kinetics, except for Escherichia coli removal, which was modelled as first order decay. The model was implemented in the Delft3D software and was used to evaluate the effect of wind and the addition of baffles on the water flow pattern, temperature profiles in the pond and treatment efficiency. In contrast to earlier models reported in the literature, our simulation results did not show any significant improvement in COD removal (based on the ASM concept) with addition of baffles or under intermittent wind-induced mixing. However, E. coli removal efficiency, based on a first order decay approach, showed a fair improvement in the presence of baffles or intermittent wind-induced mixing. Furthermore, simulations with continuous wind effect showed a decrease in removal efficiency for COD but a further increase in E. coli removal efficiency. Such contrasting results for two different approaches in modelling could indicate that the first order decay concept might not be appropriate to describe all the interactions between biochemical processes in a pond. However, these interpretations remain theoretical, as the model needs validation with field data. 相似文献

Environmental flows are critical to sustaining a variety of plant and animal communities in wetlands. However, evaluation of environmental flows is hampered by the problem of hydrological and ecological data shortage, especially in many developing countries such as China. Based on a hydrological model, a water balance model and remote sensing data, we assessed the environmental flows of China's Wolonghu wetland with limited data. The hydrological model provides input data for the water balance model of the wetland, and the remote sensing data can be used to assess land use changes. Integration of these two models with the remote sensing data revealed both the environmental flows of the Wolonghu wetland and the relationships between these environmental flows and land use changes. The results demonstrate that environmental flows have direct and indirect influences on the wetland ecosystem and should be linked to sustainable wetland management. 相似文献

Macroalgae are a major benthic component of coral reefs and their dynamics influence the resilience of coral reefs to disturbance. However, the relative importance of physical and ecological processes in driving macroalgal dynamics is poorly understood. Here we develop a Bayesian belief network (BBN) model to integrate many of these processes and predict the growth of coral reef macroalgae. Bayesian belief networks use probabilistic relationships rather than deterministic rules to quantify the cause and effect assumptions. The model was developed using both new empirical data and quantified relationships elicited from previous studies. We demonstrate the efficacy of the BBN to predict the dynamics of a common Caribbean macroalgal genus Dictyota. Predictions of the model have an average accuracy of 55% (implying that 55% of the predicted categories of Dictyota cover were assigned to the correct class). Sensitivity analysis suggested that macroalgal dynamics were primarily driven by top–down processes of grazing rather than bottom–up nutrification. BBNs provide a useful framework for modelling complex systems, identifying gaps in our scientific understanding and communicating the complexities of the associated uncertainties in an explicit manner to stakeholders. We anticipate that accuracies will improve as new data are added to the model. 相似文献

Wind-tunnel simulations were employed to evaluate the wind environment around a tested residential area located near industrial
complexes. The scaled-down geomorphological model of the test area was placed in the test section of a boundary layer wind
tunnel. Particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurements were made in five vertical planes and one horizontal plane around the
test area for two prevailing wind directions. The results showed that the wind speed decreased in the near surface layer and
the velocity fluctuations increased in the upper region due to the presence of hills and high-rise buildings around the test
area. Regions of flow separation and low-speed flow were found inside the test area for both the wind directions. The result
suggests that the high-rise buildings should be well arranged with respect to the main wind directions to increase the natural
ventilation inside the residential complex at the initial design stage. 相似文献

This paper presents the development and validation results of a weighted small-world network model designed to simulate fire patterns in real heterogeneous landscapes. Fire spread is simulated on a gridded landscape, a mosaic in which each cell represents an area of the land surface. In this model, the interaction between burning and non-burning cells (here, due to flame radiation) may extend well beyond nearest neighbors, and depends on local conditions of wind, topography, and vegetation. An approach based on the coupling of the solid flame model with the Monte Carlo method is used to predict the radiative heat flux from the flame generated by the burning of each combustible cell to its neighbors. The weighting procedure takes into account latency (a combustible cell will only ignite when it has accumulated enough energy along time) and flaming persistence of burning cells. The model is applied to very different fire scenarios: a historical Mediterranean fire that occurred in southeastern France in 2005 and experimental fires conducted in arid savanna fuels in South Africa in 1992. Model results are found to be in agreement with real fire patterns, in terms both of rate of spread, and of the area and shape of the burn. This work also shows that the fractal properties of fire patterns predicted by the model are similar to those observed from satellite images of three other Mediterranean fire scars. 相似文献
