There is a recognized need for a reliable method of determining the stage discharge curve for compound channels, of which
a closely studied example is the floodplain-channel-floodplain combinations of the type investigated by the UK Flood Channel
Facility (FCF). This paper re-analyses the coherence approach to use subsection weighting based on area...
Tidal currents of up to 50cms-1 occur in the Hauraki Gulf, NZ, the location for the 2000 and 2003 America's Cup racing. The average speed difference between the race winner and loser is usually much less than 0.5%. Thus exploiting even weak environmental gradients in currents can provide a competitive advantage. Rules prevent receiving information,...
A three dimensional hydrodynamic numerical model has been developed and used to predict the tidal and wind driven currents in the Hauraki Gulf. Both a model of the greater Hauraki Gulf and the America's Cup site have been implemented. For both models the predicted tidal elevations, tidal phases and tidal currents agree favorably with observed and m...
