Examples in Context
- Besides flood-control benefit of dredging works is calculated by utilizing this model. The study proved the dredging works will improve flow field easement degree and reduce flood level greatly under the conditions of high flood level.
- By using this method the seepage risk rate of embankment under the condition of high flood level never occurred in history can be predicted.
- The variations of water head distribution in levee, which submerged in long term high flood level, in the process of different drawdown velocities are measured in model test.
- The deposit layer of thick granularity and low magnetic susceptibility formed in condition of stronger water power indicates higher flood level. Otherwise, the deposit layer of thin granularity and high magnetic susceptibility formed in condition of weaker water power indicates lower flood level.
- High tides expected at the end of the month could also slow draining of flood waters around Bangkok, which is only a couple of meters above sea level.
