    Real-Time Flood Hydrograph Predictions Using Rating Curve and Soft Computing Methods (ga, Ann)
    (Elsevier, 2022) Tayfur, Gökmen
    This chapter introduces hydraulic and hydrologic flood routing methods in natural channels. It details hydrological flood routing methods of the Rating Curve and Muskingum. Based on the rating curve method (RCM), it presents real-time flood hydrograph predictions using the genetic algorithm (GA-based RCM) model. In addition, it presents how to make real-time flood hydrograph predictions using the artificial neural network (ANN). The chapter briefly introduces the basics of GA and details how to calibrate and validate the GA-based RCM model using measured real-time flood hydrographs. Similarly, after giving the basics of ANN, it shows how to train and test the ANN model using measured hydrographs. Real hydrograph simulations by the RCM, GA-based RCM, and ANN are presented, and merits of each model are discussed. © 2023 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    Developing Predictive Equations for Water Capturing Performance and Sediment Release Efficiency for Coanda Intakes Using Artificial Intelligence Methods
    (MDPI, 2022) Hazar, Oğuz; Tayfur, Gökmen; Elçi, Şebnem; Singh, Vijay P.
    Estimation of withdrawal water and filtered sediment amounts are important to obtain maximum efficiency from an intake structure. The purpose of this study is to develop empirical equations to predict Water Capturing Performance (WCP) and Sediment Release Efficiency (SRE) for Coanda type intakes. These equations were developed using 216 sets of experimental data. Intakes were tested under six different slopes, six screens, and three water discharges. In SRE experiments, sediment concentration was kept constant. Dimensionless parameters were first developed and then subjected to multicollinearity analysis. Then, nonlinear equations were proposed whose exponents and coefficients were obtained using the Genetic Algorithm method. The equations were calibrated and validated with 70 and 30% of the data, respectively. The validation results revealed that the empirical equations produced low MAE and RMSE and high R2 values for both the WCP and the SRE. Results showed outperformance of the empirical equations against those of MNLR. Sensitivity analysis carried out by the ANNs revealed that the geometric parameters of the intake were comparably more sensitive than the flow characteristics.
