Numerical modelling study for application of hydraulic structures for flood control

Mathematical models have been developed to resolve many problems that are related to water profile evaluation. The flow through weir can be solved using numerical methods and computer techniques. Storage in channel and river could be utilized by installing weir at strategic locations along the river...
