Frequency Analysis of Annual Maximum Flood for Segamat River

Frequency Analysis of Annual Maximum Flood for Segamat River

Several major floods had occurred in the last few decades in Segamat, causing extensive damage to properties and harm local community. For the purpose of flood risk management, this study estimated the average recurrence interval (ARI) and peak flows associated with the ARI based on the distribution...

Civil engineering (General) Several major floods had occurred in the last few decades in Segamat, causing extensive damage to properties and harm local community. For the purpose of flood risk management, this study estimated the average recurrence interval (ARI) and peak flows associated with the ARI based on the distributions of annual peak flow. The flood frequency analysis was performed for flood series data of Segamat River, at Sg. Segamat gauging station (Site 2528414) for the years 1960 – 2011.

The goodness of fit test (GOF) of Kolmogorov-Smirnov (K-S) was used to evaluate and estimate the bestfitted distribution.
