Study on Applicability of Xin'anjiang Model and Tank Model in Flood Forecasting in Majiagou Reservoir by MA Jinghang, XIAN Yongcai, HE Xueping, LIU Ming, HAN Muyuan, DU Bailin, RUAN Bingnan, XU Liujia, WU Lei

“…Flood forecasting is one of the important non-engineering flood control measures and is the main basis for flood control command and decision-making.In order to avoid the uncertainty of the prediction results of a single model,the Majiagou Reservoir in Chenggu County was taken as the object to simulate the daily runoff and flood process from 2019 to 2021 by using the Xin'anjiang model and tank model respectively,and the simulation results and accuracy of the two models were compared by using the model parameters calibrated and optimized by the genetic algorithm.In the daily runoff simulation,the simulation effect of the tank model is better than that of the Xin'anjiang model,with a relative error of flood volume of less than 16%,a relative error of flood peak of less than 4%,a difference of peak time of less than 1 h,and a Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency coefficient of greater than 0.58,all of which meet the evaluation accuracy requirements of the Standard for Hydrological Information and Hydrological Forecasting,and the simulation effect of deluge in the reservoir is ideal.In the flood process simulation,the difference of peak time between the two models is similar;the simulation effect of the Xin'anjiang model is smoother,and the flood volume and flood peak simulated by the tank model are closer to the measured flow process.On the whole,the tank model is more suitable for flood forecasting in Majiagou Reservoir than the Xin'anjiang model.…”

Extreme Temperatures, Hospital Utilization and Public Health Insurance Spending by Yusun Kim, Qing Miao, Ling Zhu

“…ObjectivesThis study examines the impact of extreme temperatures on hospital utilization and public health insurance program spending in a country with no universal health coverage.MethodsUsing nationwide U.S. county-level panel data and a fixed effects model, we estimate the impact of annual variations in the number of hot and cold days on hospital utilization and medical reimbursements for low-income and elderly beneficiaries of public health insurance.ResultsOur results show that extreme heat and mild cold increase medical reimbursements to low-income beneficiaries, while extreme cold increases benefit transfer to the elderly. …”

Study on the Impact of Step Layout on Secondary Energy Dissipation and Flow Pattern of Spillway Tailwater by YANG Ruiguo, QIU Yong, CHEN Yubin, YUE Cuiyun, YIN Xingtang

“…A secondary energy dissipation is required between the sill underflow stilling basin and the downstream tailrace at the outlet of the Dabaitian Reservoir spillway in Fengqing County,Yunnan Province.At the same time,the stepped energy dissipation section is connected through a 40° bend to adapt to the change of terrain.Through the hydraulic model test research,based on the original plan,after the water flowing out of the stilling basin passes through the stepped bend,an obvious Z-shaped folded water flow is produced on the plane.When it occurs once in 30 years,the water velocity on the left side of the bend reaches 9.97 m/s,threatening the stability of the rock formations along the slope of the left bank.The modified plan of step backward movement can effectively improve the flow pattern in the bend.On this basis,an improved plan to reduce the size of the original step (2.50 m×1.50 m to 1.00 m×0.60 m) is proposed to avoid falling water flow at the location of the step in the case of frequent small-flow floods.The research results show that in the improved stepped energy dissipation combination for bend,the water depth distribution along the cross section of the tailrace downstream of the stilling basin is relatively even in the case of small-flow floods,and the flow patten is improved significantly,so the water flowing back to the river smoothly is realized under frequent flood discharges.…”
