Assessment of flood risk in madaripur sadar upazila under climate change using an integrated approach

ALAM, MD. SADIUL (Institute of Water and Flood Management, 2021-10-10)

In Bangladesh, flood usually inundates around 20% of its terrain in a normal flood and this inundation extent may rise to 65% during an extreme flood, which is likely to be further worsened by climate change. Moreover, in ...
Study between short- and long-reach flow simulations with 1d hydrodynamic model in a floodplain environment

Sheonty, Sabrina Rashid (Institute of Water and Flood Management, 2021-06-19)

Bangladesh is a floodplain deltaic country. There are around 700 rivers in the country with an extensive seasonally flooded floodplain. For proper management of these rivers and the natural resources of the floodplains, ...
Development of adaptation strategies to groundwater level declination in Dhaka city

Moshfika, Mehanaz (Institute of Water and Flood Management, 2021-05-29)

Dhaka city, having a population of more than 15 million, depends on groundwater (GW) as a source of quality water. Recently, the city is encountering GW diminution and the declining scenarios are dissimilar in different ...
Numerical model based investigation of physical and hydraulic factors controlling sedimentation in a selected tidal basin in the south-west of Bangladesh

Iqra, Nazeat Ameen (Institute of Water and Flood Management, 2021-11-29)

Tidal basins under the Tidal River Management projects in Bangladesh exhibit complex morphological patterns consisting of substantial spatial and temporal variability of sedimentation. Sedimentation in the tidal basin is ...
Impact of morphological changes at the eastern part of the Meghna estuary on storm surge considering sea level rise

Asik, Tansir Zaman (Institute of Water and Flood Management, 2021-07-14)

This study aims to investigate the impacts of the morphological changes under different sea level rise scenarios on the storm surge height and storm surge induced inundation at the eastern part of the Meghna estuary. To ...
Development of an analytical model for real-time assessment of tidal barrage power generation

Rafiqul Islam Khan, Md. (Institute of Water and Flood Management (IWFM), BUET, 2020-03-09)

The world is focusing on renewable energy especiallyonsolar, wind and tidal energy. However, research on tidal power, more specifically, tidal barrage power, has not yet received dueattention.Current approaches and practices ...
Changes and causes of rainfall extremes over northeast Bangladesh under the warming world

Abul Basher, Md. (Institute of Water and Flood Management (IWFM), BUET, 2019-06-29)

Northeast Bangladesh is located in the Meghna basin. The local community of northeast Bangladesh is very much concerned about the flash flood as it damages the Boro rice during the pre-monsoon season. Hence, long-term or ...
Assessing the impacts of the Padma river stabilization and its embankment failure through a combined 1d and 2d hydrodynamic model simulation

Biswas, Subir (Institute of Water and Flood Management (IWFM), BUET, 2020-10-28)

Bangladesh is in a unique geographic location with the dominance of floodplains, low lands, proximity to the sea and overwhelming dependence on nature. Flood is a common phenomenon here as it is a riverine country and ...
Performance evaluation of bandal-like structures for tidal river flow and sediment management

Numan-Al-Kibriya (Institute of Water and Flood Management (IWFM), BUET, 2020-09-01)

Tidal Rivers experience bi-directional sediment transport associated with variable distribution of sediment concentration generated by the periodic flood and ebb tide and the development of meandering planforms in the tidal ...
