Modeling Flap Gate Culverts in Adaptive Hydraulics (AdH)

Abstract

This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) describes the methodology and implementation of flap gate culverts in the 2-D Shallow Water (SW2D) version of Adaptive Hydraulics (AdH). This technical note will outline how to calculate the culvert coefficient (K) for flap gate culverts for use in AdH and present a test case detailing the implementation of the structure into AdH input files. A synopsis of the test case results is also presente
