TUFLOW's groundwater modeling supports applications like multi-event calibration, long-term catchment simulations, operational flood forecasting, and coupled 2D-3D riverine and estuary water quality models.
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Storm Water Management Model (SWMM) is a popular, open source, hydrology and 1D modelling system. First developed in the late 60s and early 1970s by the University of Florida, Metcalf & Eddy, and CDM, the application has had many major upgrades over the decades to its current version.
Running a model efficiently relies primarily on making the right planning and design decisions. But once you know what results you need, and your models have been properly set up, there are many tools, tips, and tricks that can help you run them more efficiently.
Management of our environmental waterways often requires the development of numerical models to simulate ambient water quality processes such as oxygen, nutrient and phytoplankton dynamics and their interactions.
The webinar discusses at an elementary level how to evaluate a hydraulic solver’s suitability and presents basic tests that can be carried out to help validate a model’s robustness. Hydraulic modellers and users of modelling outputs will find this webinar invaluable.
This webinar showcases two real world flood forecasting systems. See how TUFLOW is used in the Bagmati-Adhwara River Basin, India and the Gold Coast, Australia to inform the forecast flood hazards for disaster response planning
Environmental management of catchment-based water resources often require the development and linkage of a range of numerical tools to simulate key water related processes. Introducing TUFLOW CATCH
Assessing sediment dynamics for Opotiki Harbour Development in New Zealand and investigating coastal navigation management after an ocean breakthrough on northern Bribie Island in Australia.
Choosing optimal compute hardware, on-premises or in the cloud, improves workflow efficiency and the ability to deliver modelling results on budget and on time. With a particular focus on GPU compute, this webinar is for IT managers as well as modellers and project managers.
Using advanced numerical modelling techniques to investigate the fate and transport of pathogens entering typical urban waterways, and their potential impact on human health.
Learn about the basic principles of hydraulic flood modelling. Dive into the history of 1D and 2D modelling, where to use one or the other, what are the data requirements, how should the boundaries be configured, explore a modelling example, and find out about some useful tips and tricks to quality control the modelling.
This webinar examines how, as a modeller, bridge crossings are best modelled in 1D, 2D, 3D layered and 3D CFD approaches. The uncertainties associated with each level of modelling and comparisons with measured data and industry guidelines are presented.
The quality and reliability of flood model results are influenced by multiple factors. This webinar discusses the potential sources of error and simple practical common-sense approaches to minimise potential unintended mistakes.
This webinar presents two interesting case studies. Case study one focuses on environmental modelling of a shallow hypersaline estuary. Case study two discusses 3D hydrodynamic modelling to inform structural design
Two case studies demonstrating the use of hydrodynamic modelling as a tool for environmental management decision making. One focuses on water quality, the other on suspended sediment transport. The presenters will share lessons learnt and discuss key aspects of the modelling that were important for successful project execution.
This webinar presents a summary of current best practice flood risk management methods. It explores how to use data that is currently available to effectively assess flood risk and how to apply our understanding of flood risk to develop a suite of measures for an integrated approach to managing our floodplains.
Many situations can benefit from water quality modelling to inform decision making. Some examples include, port developments, desalination plant, wastewater treatment plant, invasive species analysis. Watch this webinar to learn how to model these.
This webinar uses a real-world model example to introduce a range of operational structures available within TUFLOW, including, operational pumps for dewatering of floodwater, coordinated operation of pumps and sluice gates, irrigation gates.
This webinar builds on the previous AWS Coastal Modelling 101 Webinar of May 2021 as we investigate extending a nearshore coastal hydrodynamic model from 2D to 3D.
1D pipe network / 2D above-ground modelling is common for urban flood risk and infrastructure design assessments. This webinar discusses the key 1D hydraulic calculations needed to replicate real-world flow behaviour. It also demonstrates automated GIS tools for data quality control review and error correction tasks.
Stationary water bodies exhibit unique physical behaviours, such as seasonal stratification and episodic turnover mixing. This webinar demonstrates hydraulic modelling of these complex physical behaviours. Learn about some common mistakes and gain various tips for your modelling.
This webinar discusses accurate modelling of the energy losses and affluxes associated with hydraulic structures.
This webinar explores the challenges and needs for accurately modelling extreme hydraulic shocks such as tsunamis and dam failures, along with non-Newtonian flow situations. Benchmarking to theoretical, flume and real-world measurements is presented.
TUFLOW’s recent software advances have dramatically increased the reliability, simulation speed and workflow efficiency or 2D hydraulic modelling. Does this signal the end to the requirement for 1D open channel / 2D floodplain linked models?
This webinar steps through the fundamental principles that all modellers should be familiar with when developing fit for purpose hydraulic models.
This introduction to coastal modelling discusses the modelling of astronomical tidal currents, estuaries, storm tides and ocean scale circulations for common coastal engineering applications.
Learn about the various aspects of hydraulic model calibration. Verification data types, reliability and quality control, useful model update practices to achieve accurate simulation results and also common result reporting considerations and approaches.
The use of smart particles that dynamically respond to environmental forcing and modify water quality is now possible. Learn how this capability can be exploited to better understand and manage aquaculture operations, and how GPU based computation can accelerate water quality simulation projects.
We discuss the accuracy of direct rainfall modelling based on benchmarking and calibration to historic data sets, and how new features in TUFLOW’s 2020 release have substantially overcome previous shortcomings of 2D hydraulic solvers for rain-on-grid modelling.
This webinar explores the requirements and challenges associated with sediment transport and morphological modelling in 2D and 3D hydrodynamic models
One size does not fit all. Hydraulic models need to be designed to suit the site-specific topography, hydrology and also study purpose. Chris Huxley leads this webinar stepping through a best practice workflow to guide your 2D hydraulic model design and build.
Greg Collecutt discusses how new generations of computer hardware favour certain hydraulic solution schemes and offer lower solution costs. Learn how and why current GPU technology can offer significantly lower costs per solution than CPU hardware.
Hear from Bill Syme, the original author of TUFLOW with over 30 years practical experience, as he discusses how new computational methods are increasing simulation speeds and analysis accuracy. Learn of the latest and greatest advancements, and the research that has underpinned TUFLOW’s 2020 release.
All models are wrong to some degree. If so, how wrong is the model and how do we as an industry quantify wrong? Where is the evidence base that a model is right? Watch as Bill Syme draws upon his 30 years experience in applying and developing hydraulic models.
