Cofferdam Risk and Uncertainty (R&U)Approach – EM 1110-2-1605 (hand

method) vs. Monte Carlo Simulation

EM 1605 (Hand Method) is Limited inPrediction of Risk Costs, While Monte

Carlo Simulation Allows for MoreVersatility in Prediction of Risk Costs

Risk Cost Equation

Cofferdam Height Optimization Equation Canbe Simplified Into:

Risk Cost = RC = P * Flood Damage Costs

+ Construction Cost

The Derivation or Determination of P is WhereMonte Carlo Simulation Allows for GreaterAdvantage Over the EM 1605 (Hand Method)

EM 1110-2-1605 – Derivation of P

Risk of Flooding is Defined as:

Where:

� N = Construction Period

� i = Number of Occurrences of Specific Flood Return Period

� P = Probability of Obtaining During Construction Period Exactly iEvents of Specific Flood Return Interval Having a Probability of pOccurring in a Single Trial.

Problem is There is no Reasonable “HandMethod” for Determining “i”.

PN! pi⋅ 1 p−( )N i−

i! N i−( )!⋅

EM 1110-2-1605 – Simplification of P

Solution - Use Statistics to Simplify Equation

Solve Opposite Question – What is ProbabilityNo Floods Occur? i.e. i = 0

Where:

� P = probability of obtaining during construction period no floodevents having a probability of p

Now 1 - P = Probability of Obtaining at LeastOne Event of Probability p During ConstructionPeriod.

The result does not define how many events(i.e. Could be More Than 1)

P 1 p−( )N

Monte Carlo Simulation – Prediction of P

Monte Carlo Simulation Allows for Predictionof “i”.

“i” is Predicted by Treating Annual FrequencyCurve as Independent Predictor of FloodEvents for Each Year of Construction Period

This is Accomplished by Fitting a ProbabilityDistribution to Annual Frequency Curve

Monte Carlo Simulation – Prediction of P

Thus the Monte Carlo Simulation Model canProvide One or More Tailwater ElevationsAbove the Cofferdam Height During aConstruction Period

Cost Equations were Then Adjusted to Allowfor Flooding Costs that Result From MoreThan One Event to be Added to the Total RiskCost (Construction + Flooding Costs).

RC = Sum (Flood Costi + Construction Cost)� Where i = number of floods

The inputs include:� cofferdam cell height (constant),

� construction duration (entered as discrete values),

� tailwater frequency curve (cumulative/beta general distributions),

� tailwater duration curve (constant per specific flood event),

� flooding costs (triangular distribution),

� construction costs (triangular distribution).
