HEC-RAS 2D Training
The SSPEED Center hosted a HEC-RAS 2D Training in this past spring. We had nearly 40 attendees, including academic, industry and governmental representatives. The presentations included everything from setting up and running HEC-RAS 2D models, to case studies and theoretical backgrounds on unsteady flow hydraulics. We plan to host more trainings as Harris County Flood Control releases the new MAAPNext models. Stay in touch with us by connecting here.
