Exploring the efficacy of reservoir fine sediment management measures through numerical simulations

Giovanni De Cesare, Azin Amini, Samuel Luke Vorlet, Montana Marshall

Reservoir sedimentation is one of the main challenges in the sustainable operation of large reservoirs because it causes volume loss, affecting hydropower production capacity, dam safety, and flood management. To ensure the sustainability of deep reservoir ...

Impacts of wave and tidal forcing on 3D nearshore processes on natural beaches. Part II. Sediment transport

David Andrew Barry, Roham Bakhtyar

This is the second of two papers on the 3D numerical modeling of nearshore hydro- and morphodynamics. In Part I, the focus was on surf and swash zone hydrodynamics in the cross-shore and longshore directions. Here, we consider nearshore processes with an e ...

Modeling sediment transport in the swash zone: A review

David Andrew Barry, Roham Bakhtyar

A critical review of conceptual and mathematical models developed in recent decades on sediment transport in the swash zone is presented. Numerous studies of the hydrodynamics and sediment transport in the swash zone in recent years have pointed out the im ...

Prediction of Longshore Sediment Transport Using Soft Computing Techniques

David Andrew Barry, Roham Bakhtyar

An important task for coastal engineers is to predict the sediment transport rates in coastal regions with correct estimation of this transport rate, it is possible to predict both natural morphological or beach morphology changes and the influence of coas ...

Efficiency of Brushwood fences in shore protection against wind-wave induced erosion

Selim Sayah

Shore protection in confined water bodies is of major importance in Switzerland where many lakes suffer severe shore erosion. It occurs mainly in shallow zones due to several reasons such as: the fluctuations of the water level , the wind-wave impact durin ...
