    Question

    Consider the following statements about (Braided River

    Aid: Hydro-Morphological Analyzer) (BRAHMA-2D):  1.      Researchers at the IIT Delhi recently developed an indigenous river model, BRAHMA-2D.  2.      BRAHMA-2D is a mathematical model to gauge the flow of large braided rivers like the Ganga.  3.      It is a quasi-3D river flow model which helps to understand how fast the water moves at different depths inside a river.   Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
    A 1 only Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 1 and 2 only Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 3 only Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 2 and 3 only Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati (IIT Guwahati) recently developed an indigenous river model, BRAHMA-2D.  BRAHMA-2D (Braided River Aid: Hydro-Morphological Analyzer) is a mathematical model to gauge the flow of large braided rivers like the Brahmaputra. It is a quasi-3D river flow model which helps to understand how fast the water moves at different depths inside a river and its circulation around a structure like a spur installed to prevent river bank erosion.
