  • Integrating 1D-2D Hydrodynamic Model for Sabarmati Upper River Basin with Special Reference to Ahmedabad City Area
    1 INTEGRATING 1D-2D HYDRODYNAMIC MODEL FOR SABARMATI UPPER RIVER BASIN WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO AHMEDABAD CITY AREA. Sejal Chandel ˡ, Dr. Suvarna Shah² ˡ PG Student, Department of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Technology and Engineering , The Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda, Vadodara, Gujarat, India ²Associate Professor, Department of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Technology and Engineering ,The Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda, Vadodara, Gujarat, India [email protected] [email protected] Abstract In recent study, Gujarat has become one of the India’s most urbanized state, causing severe flash flooding. The Sabarmati river is one of the major west-flowing rivers in India and biggest river of north Gujarat. Urbanization should meet the population’s need by enlargement of paved areas, which has unusually changed the catchment’s hydrological and hydraulic characteristic. Therefore, the frequency of flash flooding in Sabarmati river has been increased. The Sabarmati river basin experienced eight times devastating flooding condition between 1972 to 2020.Among which July 2017 flooding event breakdown a 112 years old record of 1905. The Dharoi dam and Wasna barrage on Sabarmati river and surrounding district Kheda, Mehsana, Gandhinagar, Ahmedabad received a huge rainfall caused anomalous inflow to tributary which forced the dam authorities to release huge discharge in short duration. The Sabarmati riverfront of Ahmedabad had been going under water for five days due incessant rainfall in the city that leads to swelling of the Sabarmati River in 2017. In order to determine extent of Inundation, Hydrodynamic Model HEC-RAS(5.0.6) with Arc GIS was used. Various scenarios were run to study the impact of simulation on flood inundation(with & without riverfront project).The simulated flood depths have been compared with actual depths obtained at gauging station, which were collected from Government authorities.

  • WQI Recorded Was the Highest for Khadakwasla and the Lowest for Yerwada Rendering the Water to Be of Good and Bad Quality Respectively at These Locations
    © 2018 JETIR July 2018, Volume 5, Issue 7 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) STUDIES ON WATER QUALITY INDEX OF THREE MAJOR RIVERS OF PUNE IN SUMMER SEASON 1MVS Vaishnavi, Department of Chemistry, JJT University, Rajasthan, India 2Shelly Gupta 2 P G Moze College of Engineering Pune, India ABSTRACT: The population in and around Pune largely survives on the flowing waters from the three rivers namely Mula,Mutha and Pavana. Regular auditing of various water quality parameters of these rivers is important to maintain their quality. Present work is a probe into the water quality of these rivers carried out at different locations during summer season in the year 2015. The composite effect of various Physico-Chemical parameters is studied through calculation of Water Quality index for these samples. The WQI recorded was the highest for Khadakwasla and the lowest for Yerwada rendering the water to be of good and bad quality respectively at these locations. It has been concluded from the study that summer as a season does have an impact on the WQI and is low for the samples as compared to those in winter though not as bad as that in monsoon. KEYWORDS: water quality index,summer, Mula,Mutha, Pavana,,DO,Temperature I. INTRODUCTION Mula,Mutha and Pavana are the main sources of water for Pune.The river Mulla has its origin at Deoghar, 70Km to the west of Pune and meets Pavana river at Dapodi. Pavana with its source in the western Ghats flows for 65 kms to meet Mula. Mula there after joins the Mutha Sangam and both these rivers then flow as the Mula-Mutha

Abstract: Flood is disastrous for developing countries, its assessment are important for flood risk management. Ahmedabad is largest city and former capital of Gujarat and included under the 100 Smart city project of India is situated 151.6 km downstream for Dharoi dam. The city has experienced floods in the year 1973, 1983, 1988, 1991, 1993, 1998, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006. Going by statistics the city has experienced flood in almost consecutive three to four years. In addition, AMC has developed the Sabarmati River Front along the banks across the city which narrows the river section. Whether any study about risk of flood vulnerability has been done prior to the implementation of the project is not clear. How the river will react during flood situation is a matter of speculation for general public.
