Introduction to 1D-2D Flood Modelling using ISIS-TUFLOW
Cost:
£275.00
Duration:
1.0 day(s)
Overview
This one day training course provides delegates with a basic understanding of coupled 1D-2D flow modelling using the ISIS and TUFLOW software programs. Coupled ISIS-TUFLOW modelling seeks to combine the best attributes and functionality of each industry-standard model to provide a software tool capable of modelling the most complex of flood flow problems. The course is pitched at an introductory level but does assume that delegates have some prior experience of the ISISTM and TUFLOW modelling systems. Previous experience of MapInfoTM Professional GIS software would also be beneficial.
Who should attend
- Hydraulic modellers with reasonable IT and GIS skills.
Course outcomes
By completing the course, delegates will:
- Gain an understanding of the basic principles of coupled 1D-2D flow modelling
- Learn how to install the ISIS-TUFLOW link
- Learn how to set up, execute and evaluate a simple ISIS-TUFLOW model
- Gain an appreciation of the advantages and limitations of coupled 1D-2D flow models
- Have the opportunity to discuss any specific modelling questions during the course ‘clinic’
Topics covered
The course includes case studies and some ‘hands-on’ modelling using TUFLOW, although no previous experience of TUFLOW is required. The course includes information from the CIRIA guidance note ‘Development and flood risk – guidance for the construction industry’ published in 2004 and Environment Agency guidance on modelling Areas Benefiting from a Defence.
