sediment flushing of reservoirs is an operational technique, whereby previously accumulated sediments in the reservoirs are hydraulically removed by accelerated flow when the bottom desiltingoutlets of the dam are opened. in this research, the process of sediment flushing is simulated by a three dimensional numerical model in which sediment and flow interaction are reflected in the reservoirs. ...

We consider the theory of erosion and investigate connections to the theory of optimal transport. The mathematical theory of erosion is based on two coupled nonlinear partial differential equations. The first one describing the water flow can be considered to be an averaged NavierStokes equation, and the second one describing the sediment flow is a very degenerate nonlinear parabolic equation. ...

Riverbend Ave. Parlier, CA 93658. *Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT Sediment data were collected in southern Idaho irrigation furrows. Irrigation furrows allow detailed study of sediment transport relationships because of gradually decreasing flow rates in long, uniform, ...

Abstract Donggala Fish Landing Port (PPI) is a fish port located in Central Sulawesi, precisely Labuan Bajo Village, Banawa District, Regency, which along the high seas coast. The change shoreline at Base caused by sediment transport that occurs due to wind and incoming waves. This study aims determine characteristics, amount of longshore per year, ratio for 10 years using Caldwell method CERC ...

in this research introduced the lapsus model as a runoff, erosion and sediment model in iran. this model for the first time has operatedin iran at kakhk paired catchment of gonabad. lapsus model is a landscape evolution model that can estimate the runoff, erosion and sediment at the four stage include: calculate the effective rainfall, runoff routing, calculate the capacity of sediment transpor...

DAI, Z.-J.; LIU, J.T.; LEI, Y.-P., and ZHANG, X.-L., 2010. Patterns of sediment transport pathways on a headland bay beach—Nanwan Beach, South China: a case study. Journal of Coastal Research, 26(6), 1096–1103. West Palm Beach (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208. Embayed beaches bounded by headlands, headland bay beaches, are a common feature along the coast of southern China. The patterns of sediment tr...

The Nobiru Coast is situated on the southwest of Ishinomaki Bay. 2011 Great East Japan Tsunami severely devastated and adjacent Naruse River mouth. In this study, an investigation was conducted based available historic maps images combined with in situ surveys that revealed century-to-decade morphology change sediment budget alteration Coast. During past two centuries, longshore transport north...

abstract the concept of armouring is used to discuss the coarse surface layer in rivers. selective erosion in an alluvial channel reach for which there is no upstream sediment supply can lead to formation of a layer coarser than the under laying material. this phenomenon inhibits sediment transport from the reach.numerical modeling of armouring river bed, provides an approach to simulation of t...
