The appendixes provide additional information regarding the standardization of riprap gradations, calculation of stone size, and combination of flow at open channel junctions.

Typical calculations are presented to illustrate the principles of design for channels under various conditions of flow. The modelling procedure involves three steps: (1) predicting upstream hydrograph by the reverse flood routing method which requires information about channel geometric characteristics, downstream flow stage and downstream flow hydrographs (2) modelling flood wave spreading using HEC-RAS.

It presents theories and procedures in the hydraulic design of flood control channels, levees, and floodwalls. Turbulence from a major flood caused the 67-foot long southern wing wall on the intake channel leading to the Mississippi River to collapse on April 14, and a large eddy can be seen where the. Most outflow channels formed after the smaller highland river systems ran dry. They are called outflow channels because they emerge full-size from depressions or large canyons.

This guide presents procedures for the design analysis and criteria of design for improved channels that carry rapid and/or tranquil flows. Massive Flooding Mars has the largest flood channels in the solar system.
