  • CHAPTER 4 Perspective of the Colombo Metropolitan Area 4.1 Identification of the Colombo Metropolitan Area
    Urban Transport System Development Project for Colombo Metropolitan Region and Suburbs CoMTrans UrbanTransport Master Plan Final Report CHAPTER 4 Perspective of the Colombo Metropolitan Area 4.1 Identification of the Colombo Metropolitan Area 4.1.1 Definition The Western Province is the most developed province in Sri Lanka and is where the administrative functions and economic activities are concentrated. At the same time, forestry and agricultural lands still remain, mainly in the eastern and south-eastern parts of the province. And also, there are some local urban centres which are less dependent on Colombo. These areas have less relation with the centre of Colombo. The Colombo Metropolitan Area is defined in order to analyse and assess future transport demands and formulate a master plan. For this purpose, Colombo Metropolitan Area is defined by: A) areas that are already urbanised and those to be urbanised by 2035, and B) areas that are dependent on Colombo. In an urbanised area, urban activities, which are mainly commercial and business activities, are active and it is assumed that demand for transport is high. People living in areas dependent on Colombo area assumed to travel to Colombo by some transport measures. 4.1.2 Factors to Consider for Future Urban Structures In order to identify the CMA, the following factors are considered. These factors will also define the urban structure, which is described in Section 4.3. An effective transport network will be proposed based on the urban structure as well as the traffic demand. At the same time, the new transport network proposed will affect the urban structure and lead to urban development.

  • Development of a Flood Forecasting Model for Kalu River and Kelani River Basins in Sri Lanka Using Radial Basis Function Neural Networks
    Development of a Flood Forecasting Model For Kalu River and Kelani River Basins in Sri Lanka using Radial Basis Function Neural Networks Seenipellage Chaminda Sugeeswara Supervisor: Prof. A. W. Jayawardena MEE09208 Abstract This research is intended to investigate a kind of river stage/discharge forecasting model suitable for Sri Lankan flood prone rivers as an essential component of an effective early flood warning system. This work was carried out on a belief, that data driven river stage/discharge model would be more suitable for Sri Lankan rivers as there are considerable amount of past records of data while other physical information that are required to develop physically based models are rare. Artificial neural networks (ANN) have recently become popular in many fields including river stage/discharge forecasting in hydrology. Among various types of ANNs, radial basis function networks (RBFN) are popular over the more widely used multilayer perceptrone for its faster convergence, smaller extrapolation errors and higher reliability. In this study, generalized radial basis function network (GRBFN) with fully supervised algorithm (trained using daily data) was applied to two most flood prone river basins for forecasting one day ahead discharge at two respective river gauging stations. Upper Kalu River basin with smaller catchment area and smaller catchment response time did not show good forecasting results, but Kelani River catchment with comparatively large catchment area, with a response time of almost a day, showed good forecasting results. It was concluded that the GRBFN could be successfully applied to daily river stage/discharge forecasting for comparatively lager catchments with larger response time (close to a day).

  • SRI LANKA Floods and Storms
    SRI LANKA: Floods and 29 April 1999 storms Information Bulletin N° 01 The Disaster Unusually heavy rains for this time of year and violent thunderstorms along the western and south-western coast of Sri Lanka between 16 and 21 April caused widespread damage and severe floods in the south-west and south of the country. The main rivers, Kelani and Kalu, rose by over seven feet, and caused additional flooding, made worse by slow run-off. Some of the worst areas received as much as 290 mm of rain in 24 hours, and even the capital, Colombo, where 284 mm fell within 24 hours, experienced bad flooding in many sectors of the city. The worst affected districts are Ratnapura, Colombo, Kalutara, Gampaha, Galle, Kandy, Matara and Kegalle, all located between the coast and the Kandyan highlands. Six persons were reported killed by lightning, landslides or floods. Thousands of houses were damaged or destroyed, and initial official figures place the number of homeless at around 75,000 families (the average family in Sri Lanka consists of five members). In Colombo alone an estimated 12,400 families were affected. The damage is reportedly much worse in the rural areas particularly in Ratnapura District, but precise information is difficult to come by since many of the affected areas are totally cut off, with roads inundated and power and telephone lines damaged. The railway line from Colombo to Kandy has been blocked since 19 April, when boulders from a landslide damaged the tracks. FirstDistricts estimates of affected people areSub-Divisions as follows:
