HEC-RAS Pub & Grub Recap
HEC-RAS Pub & Grub 2020 recap. A review of the 2020 HEC-RAS Pub & Grub Event that took place at the Craft Brew Alliance's pH Experiment pub in Portland Oregon Feb 20, 2020.
Online Class – Using HEC-RAS to Modeling Bridges, Culverts, and Floodplains
Hey RAS Users- This is a basic level steady flow HEC-RAS class. That’s right, we start from the very beginning with HEC-RAS-steady flow theory, building 1D geometry, steady flow boundary conditions, and even introductions to RAS Mapper and 2D modeling. I’ll be hosting weekly live sessions for this class to review the course material and […]
1D/2D Offline Connection Issues
Written by Chris Goodell | Kleinschmidt Associates Copyright © The RAS Solution. All rights reserved. I’ve mentioned this before, but I am thoroughly impressed with the robustness of the finite volume solution scheme used in 2D areas in HEC-RAS. As long as your Courant Numbers are in a good spot, you rarely get errors and instabilities in […]
Galileo and Missoula Flood Modeling
I’m honored to have worked with Galileo on this article. It’s a great read and demonstrates the benefits of adding Galileo to your HEC-RAS modeling tool box. Click here for the full article. https://galileoapp.io/hec-ras-galileo-wine-have-in-common/
HEC-RAS Pub & Grub 2! HEC is coming to town!
HEC-RAS…Portland…Food…Beer. They seem to just go perfectly together. That is why we’re hosting… HEC-RAS Pub & Grub 2 You will want to save this date! On Feb 20, 2020 HEC’s very own Gary Brunner, Cameron Ackerman, and Mark Jensen will be joining me in Portland Oregon to speak at the next offering of the HEC-RAS […]
Very fine 2D Modeling
I’m a big fan of testing HEC-RAS to the limits. What can it do? What can’t it do? These are questions we should all ask at the beginning of a project. Can HEC-RAS actually prove to be a useful tool in answering hydraulic-related questions for our specific problem? Shortly after coming to work at Kleinschmidt […]
McBreach Probabilistic Dam Breach Modeling – Free Webinar
ICEWaRM will be hosting this free webinar where I’ll be discussing the software program McBreach and its application to probabilistic dam breach modeling. Come join in! Please note the the webinar start time for your particular time zone. Starts at 10:30 AM local Sydney Australia time on Wednesday, Nov 6th. That is 3:30 PM on Tuesday, Nov […]
HEC-RAS in Three Dimensions
Now this is the kind of post that gets you on The RAS Solution! Cutting edge creative solutions to complex problems. This is great stuff. Thanks Michael for all the effort you put in to this. In today’s post we’ll cover two methodologies that leverage HEC RAS results to create impressionable and multi-dimensional flood visualizations. […]
2D HEC-RAS Class in Boise October 28-30
HEC-RAS Modelers! Don’t miss this opportunity for 2D HEC-RAS training in beautiful Boise Idaho. I’ll be teaching this class and hope to see you there! There are limited seats for this class so don’t delay in signing up. This will be a three-day course with a mix of lectures and workshop exercises. You will learn […]
McBreach Probabilistic Dam Breach Modeling Software
Fellow HEC-RAS modelers. Today is National Dam Safety Day. Dam Breach modeling is a key component to a well-rounded and robust dam safety program. If you’re doing dam breach modeling, you need to check out McBreach. Probabilistic hydraulic modeling is where we’re heading with dam breach analysis. Why not get a head start with McBreach. […]
HEC-RAS Pub and Grub in Portland-June 27th-Reminder and short video preview!
For those of you who will be in the Portland Oregon area on June 27th, I invite you to join me for this special event Kleinschmidt is hosting at the Lucky Lab on Hawthorne. I’ll be joined by two dynamic and entertaining presenters: Krey Price of Surface Water Solutions and Sean Welch of BPA. We […]
Those Nuisance Cell Errors and Wedge Depressions
If you’ve been doing some 2D modeling, you most likely have run into what I call nuisance cell errors. You see them while your model is running and they can really slow down your simulation as the RAS chugs through iterations to try to come to a solution. The errors here are in the […]
