A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF FLOOD MODELLING

AND FLOOD RISK ASSESSMENT AT UPPER TEESTA RIVER BASIN
AND SHETRUNJI RIVER USING HEC-RAS AND HEC-HMS SOFTWARE
Resume + My List
I. Background of the Study
Flood is an unpredictable and unexpected event which not only damages the natural resources, lives
and environment but also causes health problems and loss of economy.
Flood modeling is one of the engineering tools which provide accurate

information of the flood profile. The rainfall, runoff, catchment characteristics and return period are the
parameters which govern the flood.

II. Description of the Problem

A. Flood Modelling Using HEC-RAS and Geo˗Informatics Technology in Lower Reaches
of Shetrunji river, Gujarat, India
Gujarat has seen various damaging floods. Almost all major rivers in Gujarat pass through a wide
stretch of very flat terrain before meeting to the ocean. These flat lands of lower river basins are prone to
be flooded
every year.
According to a government report, many parts of Gujarat are vulnerable to floods because major
rivers "pass through a wide stretch of the very flat terrain before reaching the sea". "These flat lowlands
of lower river basins are prone to flooding," it adds.

B. Flash flood risk assessment for upper Teesta River basin: using the Hydrological
Modeling System (HEC-HMS) software
Flash flood is one of the devastating natural disasters in the mountainous region of India. In Sikkim
Darjeeling Himalaya Teesta Watershed is a probable flash flood occurrence zone.
The recent flood in the Mandakini River in Kedarnath (14–17th June, 2013) is a classic example of flash
floods. devastated Uttarakhand by killing thousands of people (Das et al. 2015). The disaster was an
integrated effect of high intensity rainfall, sudden breach of Chorabari Lake and very steep topography (Rao
et al. 2014).

C. Flood in the Philippines
According to worlddata.info, Typhoons occur very often in the Philippines. On average, they happen
about 16 times a year. The hardest hit regions are Calabarzon, Bicol and Central Luzon. One of the strongest
typhoons that hits the Philippines is typhoon Super typhoon Yolanda with a death toll of around 6,300
people and damage worth ₱95.5 billion pesos.

III. Diagnosis
• HEC-RAS is a one-dimensional steady flow hydraulic model designed to aid hydraulic engineers in channel
flow analysis and floodplain determination.
• HEC-HMS is designed to simulate the precipitation-runoff processes of dendritic drainage basins.
• Both studies display a particular concern in which they may amplify hazards and unimaginable damages in
the country of India.
• Both studies focus on the different flood-causing rivers in India, their methods in analyzing and collecting
information the specific areas that surround the both rivers, Shetrunji and Teesta are alike namely the
HEC-RAS and HEC-HMS, respectively.
Resume + My List
III. Diagnosis
• The districts of Banaskantha,
Patan, Gandhinagar, Morbi,
Surendranagar, Mehsana and
Sabarkantha received 267%,
208%, 189%, 174%, 172%, 130%
and 115% respectively of their
average rainfall for the same
period.

III. Diagnosis
• Low-lying regions in Nilphamari,

Lalmonirhat, and Kurigram have been
flooded as the Teesta River crossed the
danger mark following heavy rains and
onrush of water from upstream.

III. Diagnosis
• As per the second study, using

the HEC-HMS modeling system, they
intended to simulate a complete
hydrologic process of the watershed
system surrounding the Teesta River

• Considering the results and the methods that are used, the second study gains more accurate and
complete generation of data that includes the hydrograph, peak discharge water volume, speed and peak
discharge time has been generated.

V. Solution
• The researchers on the first case study conducted a study through creating a flood modelling using
the HEC-RAS model.
• The researchers in the second study attempts to develop a simulation model of surface runoff on
this river.

VI. Conclusion/Recommendation
Fredrich P. Villar Jr.
With the use of machine as a mean of predicting and evaluating a flood, we can develop appropriate
measures to control flood risk, mitigate flood hazard, evacuate people from flood hazard areas, determine
insurance premiums, and manage
environmental and water resources systems.

VI. Conclusion/Recommendation
Arianne Grace B. Bulingot
When the location of your home is lower than the rest or your location is in the center of high elevated
locations, there is a high chance that your location is prone to flooding.
Jhanielle Ara P. Gabor
In relation to the current situation in the Philippines, some of the regions where flooding is massive and
frequent can also be put under study through the use of different hydraulic model such as the HEC-RAS and
HEC-HMS that is used on the both studies that we acquired.
