Actually, HEC-GEORAS is software developed by the Army Corps of Engineers and is free for all to use just like HECRAS and all of their other offerings. Geo HECRAS is **not** the same software. Geo HECRAS is a "wrapper" that goes over HECRAS developed by a company called CivilGEO (the...
I've created a HEC project to simulate a dam breach, and it's currently running with no errors. However...
I have an inflow hydrograph flowing into the most upstream XS that has a flow rate of 0.5 cfs. As far as I can tell I have no other inflows whatsoever. I also set the pond elevation...
I hate to double-post, but I thought I would pass along the correspondence I've had since my last post.
I sent in another inquiry to the company (CivilGEO) asking for references, and explained the testimonials they have on their website are not valid. I also told them that I couldn't find a...
Has anyone heard anything else? I was watching some videos on Youtube about using the integrated HECRAS software in AutoCAD and came across the ad for geoHECRAS. I sat through a demo yesterday, and the software did seem very impressive. However, as a small firm the cost isn't insignificant to...
I wondered that, myself, but after searching EPANET and tanks on the web, it appears that it uses a closed system to keep that from happening. Here's link to a discussion about this topic:

The quote from...
Yup--no simple way to do this one as EPANET has limited editing abilities. What hydrae said above will work, but be careful that they do not overlap (as stated).
I don't know all of the functions of the software, but I've used EPACAD to pull AutoCAD files into EPANET. It's limited, but very...
So I'm assuming the tank starts off at full volume, or at least above the minimum stage? Have you checked the demand within your system? Could it be that the demand is exceeding the pump delivery volume, thus requiring water to be drawn from the tank, as well? Without seeing how your system...
I have a water system model that I'm connecting to another "dummy" system. The system that I'm connecting it to is significantly lower in elevation (the new system and tank are about 200 feet lower than the current system). The new system consists of a tank that is filled with my existing...
I have the stand-alone version of WaterCAD (I think), and was wondering how you interface it with AutoCAD. Is there an add-on you have to purchase? Is it a free download? I bought the software form a firm that no longer had use for it with the intention of integrating it with AutoCAD. I...
I have a wireless network camera that I want to mount in a location that doesn't have an outlet (the camera I own is the D-Link DCS-900G, and details can be found here: http://www.dlink.com/products/?sec=0&pid=459). Anyway, the users manual states that the power supply cord is a 5-volt, 2.5-Amp...
Geez guys... this is a *forum* where we're supposed to help each other out, right? This forum wouldn't exist if people didn't have questions, so why all the back biting and snippy comments?
Sure am... I = 39.6 in^4, E = 29 e6, and I'm using the formula Pl^3/48EI... Ugh--sorry. I was using Pl/2 instead of Pl/4 to determine the point load from the given moment. Man am I getting rusty with my old age. I'm now getting 18".
Regarding the loading, I absolutely agree that 100 psf...
I think this is where I've really dropped the ball. I'm not familair with standards of practice or code for Structural Engineering just like we have in the Gen Civil/Environmental world. I'm trying to make too many general assumptions and deriving my values from basic textbook formulas. I...
