Two-Dimensional Hydraulic Modeling of Existing and Original Bridges at I-35 and Cimarron River
This study uses a common method of determining water surface elevations and velocities to compare the existing bridge structure at the Interstate-35 and Cimarron River crossing to the original bridge that was damaged by a flood in 1986. The complexity of the site requires a two-dimensional analysis that was performed using the FESWMS-2DH computer model. The use of the program is simplified by using SMS, developed by Brigham Young University, to provide a graphical environment to input data and view the output. SMS uses the Galerkin finite element method to calculate the depth averaged velocities and water surface elevations in a two dimensional plane. The results from this study are compared to determine if the design of the existing structures reduced the velocity and water surface elevations at the structures and validate the changes made to the Interstate-35 river crossing. The results may also be used to further validate the use of FESWMS-2DH and SMS for the hydraulic modeling of bridges.
