Explore the complexities of hydraulic modelling for bridge crossings in this comprehensive webinar. Delve into the theory behind bridge energy losses and examine various modelling approaches including 1D, 2D, 3D, and physical modelling. Learn from a real-world case study of the Bruce Highway at Eudlo Creek and discover key research findings on bridge deck modelling. Gain insights into the challenges and uncertainties associated with different modelling techniques, and understand how to best emulate complex water flow patterns around bridge structures. Compare modelling results with measured data and industry guidelines to enhance your hydraulic modelling skills for bridge crossings.
