Summary
One of the main physically- based methods for overland flow and channel flow modeling is the kinematic wave method. Kinematic wave models, including kinemtic wave equations for channel flow and overland flow, analytical solutions, numerical solutions, distinguishing features of kinemtic wave model, and implementation of kinematic wave model in HEC-HMS are discussed.
