Tool: BASEMENT

Description

Basement is a numerical simulation software for computation of environmental flow and natural hazard events. It was programmed by ETH Zurich to determine the impact of river corrections. The whole program is developed for hydraulic purposes to analyze river flow and flood potentials. It offers many modelling possibilities including sediment transport, erosion and both steady and unsteady modes. It also includes many algorithms and calculation methods (optimisation techniques). Basechain is a 1D numerical tool for river reach simulation. BASEplane is a 2D numerical tool for river reach simulation. Both of them are primarily hazard based.
