Article Citation - WoS: 29Citation - Scopus: 31Reverse Flood Routing in Rivers Using Linear and Nonlinear Muskingum Models(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2021) Badfar, Meisam; Barati, Reza; Doğan, Emrah; Tayfur, GökmenOne of the key factors for flood modeling and control is the flood hydrograph, which is not always available due to lack of flood discharge observations. In reverse flow routing, hydraulic or hydrological calculations are performed from the downstream end to the upstream end. In the present study, a reverse flood routing approach is developed based on the Muskingum model. The storage function is conceptualized as linear and five different nonlinear forms. The Euler and the fourth-order Runge-Kutta numerical methods are used for solving the storage models. The shuffled complex evolution (SCE) algorithm is used for optimization of the flood routing parameters. The models are calibrated and validated with theoretical and actual hydrographs. The results indicate that the proposed methodology could substantially (up to almost 82%) improve comparison with observed inflows. The practical applicability of the proposed methodology is also validated in real river systems.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 15Subspace-Based Frequency Estimation of Sinusoidal Signals in Alpha-Stable Noise(Elsevier Ltd., 2002) Altınkaya, Mustafa Aziz; Deliç, Hakan; Sankur, Bülent; Anarım, EminIn the frequency estimation of sinusoidal signals observed in impulsive noise environments, techniques based on Gaussian noise assumption are unsuccessful. One possible way to find better estimates is to model the noise as an alpha-stable process and to use the fractional lower order statistics (FLOS) of the data to estimate the signal parameters. In this work, we propose a FLOS-based statistical average, the generalized covariation coefficient (GCC). The GCCs of multiple sinusoids for unity moment order in SαS noise attain the same form as the covariance expressions of multiple sinusoids in white Gaussian noise. The subspace-based frequency estimators FLOS-multiple signal classification (MUSIC) and FLOS-Bartlett are applied to the GCC matrix of the data. On the other hand, we show that the multiple sinusoids in SαS noise can also be modeled as a stable autoregressive moving average process approximated by a higher order stable autoregressive (AR) process. Using the GCCs of the data, we obtain FLOS versions of Tufts-Kumaresan (TK) and minimum norm (MN) estimators, which are based on the AR model. The simulation results show that techniques employing lower order statistics are superior to their second-order statistics (SOS)-based counterparts, especially when the noise exhibits a strong impulsive attitude. Among the estimators, FLOS-MUSIC shows a robust performance. It behaves comparably to MUSIC in non-impulsive noise environments, and both in impulsive and non-impulsive high-resolution scenarios. Furthermore, it offers a significant advantage at relatively high levels of impulsive noise contamination for distantly located sinusoidal frequencies.
