Abstract The attention of researchers and engineers has been attracted to gabion weirs due their environmental, hydraulic, stability capabilities compared with solid weirs. One the possible problems is partial blockage caused by sedimentation upstream them. This research experiment investigates hydraulic performance broad-crested (GBCWs) an blockage. For this purpose, a total 147 experiments we...

Stepped spillways can be defined as human-made hydraulic structures constructed to monitor and control flow release attain high energy dissipation. Such are commonly used in embankment dams; however, it is important that a sufficient chute length provided develop the required aerated flow; point at which this occurs known inception point. This paper focusses on influence of non-uniform geometry...

Double-twisted hexagonal gabion wire mesh is a type of reinforced soil material that used in retaining walls to stabilize the slope geotechnical engineering. In this study, series tensile tests were conducted investigate behavior mesh. Meanwhile, numerical models built whole loading-strain process. The influence diameter, width, and length on strength evaluated based laboratory simulation. quan...

Slope is a plane on the ground level that connects higher with lower level. On every slope there always possibility of landslides because uneven ground, component gravity tends to move soil from high elevation elevation. One efforts can be made prevent landslide build retaining wall. Retaining walls are generally concrete, but in some conditions, use common materials problematic, especially ter...
