RAS2025: Overview, New Capabilities, and a Demo (RUG Webinar 1)
The RAS team provides an update on the development of our HEC-RAS rewrite RAS2025. This presentation includes an overview of the software, a full demo of model construction including importing terrain from the USGS, and a look under the hood at new features and coming attractions.
This presentation introduces the classic bridge modeling approaches available in previous versions of HEC-RAS 6.x and then introduces the new pressure-overtopping approach released in version 6.7. This presentation was part of the 2025 RAS User Group (RUG) webinar series.
Version 6.2 includes a new Hydraulic Design Feature to Import and Analyze Sediment Data.
This webinar introduces:
Common Sediment Data Analysis Errors,
Best Practices for Sediment Data Analysis, and
Introduces an Alpha Version* of the Sediment Analysis Tool
Including Bias Correction, Stationarity Analysis, Temporal Averaging, Piecewise Linear Regression, Hysteresis Visualization (and more)
*Note: The release version improved substantially from the version in this video. Most significantly, the release version can download sediment data directly from the USGS. But it also has a new look and feel, with many new features. See the full documentation here.
