is used in the simulation. The cases of sudden removal of
the dam and a partial dam break with a 0.7315 m (2.4 ft) wide breach are
considered in this test.
The simulated hydrographs at the locations shown in Figure5.7 are
compared with the available measured data. For the fully breached case,
the simulated and measured hydrographs at P1 (39.624 m upstream of
the dam) and P4 (5.7912 m upstream of the dam) are shown in Figure5.8,
while the hydrographs at P5 (7.62 m downstream of dam) and P6 (45.72
m downstream of dam) are shown in Figure5.9. For the partial dam-
