Frequency analysis of hydrologic data, with special application to rainfall intensities
1953
Chow, Ven Te
The greatest need for information relating to hydrologic frequencies is apparent in various economic studies and in efficient designs of cofferdams, waterway openings in bridges, highway and railway culverts, urban storm sewers, farm terraces, airfield drainage, stream-control works, hydroelectric power installations, water-supply facilities and many other hydraulic structures and projects which are designed in consideration of the frequency of certain hydrologic events. In securing the necessary information from hydrologic data, hydraulic engineers are therefore required to possess a working knowledge of the hydrologic frequency analysis with respect to its principles and procedures. The existing methods of hydrologic frequency analysis are numerous, and the view points and theories expressed thereupon are diverse and confusing. It is very desirable to review the manifold methods available in this field and to apply them to a certain specific problem. From the results thus obtained, it is possible to develop sound principles and practical procedures for the use of engineers. The purpose of this report is to attempt the presentation of such principles and procedures of frequency analyses for hydrologic data.
