Possibility of using raspy Python library to handle unsteady flow and Automate River and Cross-Section Creation in HEC-RAS

Open siddigberama999 opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Can we use HEC-RAS in conjunction with RAS + Python (raspy) for unsteady flow analysis? Is it possible to automate the creation of river and cross-section flow paths and banks instead of manual input?

Cross-sections require modifying the geometry files directly, since as far as I know HEC-RAS doesn't provide automation for that. RaspyGeo might be able to create new cross-sections automatically if you add blank ones manually (I believe there's a cross-section list in the geometry file that RaspyGeo doesn't modify, but it can modify an existing cross-section arbitrarily).

In principle unsteady flow in Raspy is doable. I can look into that in the future, but I can't guarantee a timeline.
