In general, hydrologic flood routing methods involve simplified numerical techniques, conservation of mass, and steady flow hy-draulics. The hydraulic flood routing methods involve complex numerical solutions of partial differential equations and the theory of unsteady flow hydraulics. Hydrologic routing methods require a relation of dis-
translate and attenuate the upstream runoff hydrograph into a downstream hydrograph. The transfer function usually consists of two parts, the routing method and the physical characteristics of the stream reach.
Routing is described in chapters 8-10 in the text book. Select the Route tab to look at the parameters for the routing method ( Muskingum ). This simulation routes the water through the reaches by the Muskingum method in which
Flood Routing is a mathematical procedure for predicting the changing magnitude, Speed and shape of a flood wave as a function of time at one or more points along a Watercourse. When a flood wave moves downstream a river, the wave configuration will be modified due to channel irregularities and roughness.
In this report, several different methods of storage routing are presented in detailed form. These methods are not new and, in general, were not originated in the Geological Survey. They are presented for the convenience of engineers engaged in hydrologic studies.
Flow routing is a mathematical procedure for predicting the changing magnitude, speed, and shape of a flood wave as a function of time at one or more points along a watercourse (waterway or channel).
schematize the flood routing phenomenon, alternative methods are described in the light of different purposes for their use encountered in hydraulic or hydrological practices. Particular attention is given to simplified methods ranging from the so-called "hydrological models" to an intermediate model,
