Influence of consecutive sediment replenishment on channel bed morphology

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Elena Battisacco, Lena Bösch

Dams interrupt the longitudinal connectivity of a river as they store water and trap sediment. When transport capacity downstream of dams exceeds sediment supply, water becomes hungry and channel incision, bed armouring and reduction of morphological diver ...

Influence of jet aeration on pressures around a block embedded in a plunge pool bottom

Anton Schleiss, Rafael Xavier Meriade Duarte

The influence of the air entrained by water jets on the dynamic pressures applied on the bottom of a plunge pool and inside underlying fissures was analyzed with systematic experiments. The large experimental facility reproduced aerated high-velocity jets ...

Air entrainment and pressure development in skimming flow on an abrupt slope change on stepped spillways

Anton Schleiss, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos, Michael Pfister, Mohammad Javad Ostad Mirza

Numerous stepped spillways were built to date, namely on RCC gravity dams or on valley flanks besides embankment or rockfill dams, while some others are currently under design or construction. In some cases, slope changes may be required on stepped chutes, ...

Secondary flow in sharp open-channel bends: experiments and modelling

Anton Schleiss, Alexandre Blanc, Joris Heyman

The dependence of curvature-induced secondary flow on the curvature ratio H/R and the Froude number Fr was systematically investigated in a series of 18 experiments in a sharply-curved laboratory flume. The investigated flow depths were 0.9 m, 0.13 m, 0.19 ...

Laboratory research: bed load guidance into sediment bypass tunnel inlet

Giovanni De Cesare, Anton Schleiss, Pedro Filipe De Almeida Manso, Milad Daneshvari

Sediment management in reservoirs situated in mountainous regions is a critical operational concern with direct implications in live storage sustainability and therefore in production revenues. The paper presents the main results of a physical model study ...

Morphodynamics in river confluences

António Heleno Cardoso, Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Sebastián Guillén Ludeña

Within the fluvial network, confluences are considered particular areas in what concerns ecological connectivity, flood safety and water quality. These characteristics were degraded in many cases, by previous channelization works, which resulted in rivers ...

Experimental evaluation of the discharge capacity of flow constrictions by check dams in mountain rivers

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Sebastian Schwindt

Open check dams are built to retain bed load in case of major floods and may have filtering, sieving as well as dosing effects on sediment transport. The combination of an upstream reservoir with an open check dam is designated as bed load trap. These stru ...

Air Entrainment in Skimming Flow on Stepped Spillways: the Effect of an Abrupt Slope Change

Anton Schleiss, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos, Michael Pfister, Mohammad Javad Ostad Mirza

Numerous stepped spillways were built during the last decades. In particular, a stepped spillway may be integrated economically into the downstream face of a RCC gravity dam, or on valley flanks besides embankment or rockfill dams, where slope changes may ...

Hydro‐morphodynamic evolution in a 90° movable bed discordant confluence with low discharge ratio

António Heleno Cardoso, Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Sebastián Guillén Ludeña

Confluences with low discharge and momentum ratios, where narrow steep tributaries with high sediment load join a wide low-gradient main channel that provides the main discharge, are often observed in high mountain regions such as in the upper- Rhone river ...

Impact du retrait glaciaire et adaptation du potentiel hydroélectrique dans les Alpes suisses

Frédéric Jordan, Anton Schleiss, Martin Peter Bieri, Stéphane Christian Olivier Terrier

Le réchauffement climatique est une réalité alarmante et conduit probablement à une augmentation de la pression sur les systèmes socio‑économiques. Cependant, dans les régions de haute‑montagne, il pourrait induire l’opportunité d’adapter des aménagements ...

Physical modelling of artificial river replenishment techniques to restore morphological conditions downstream of dams

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Elena Battisacco

First applied in the 1980’s, the artificial replenishment of sediments is one technique proposed to solve the problem of sediment deficit downstream dams. The present experimental research aims at improving the technique of river replenishment and at provi ...

Optimal location of micro-turbines in water supply network

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Irene Almeida Samora

Micro-hydropower is currently expanding as a solution to improve the efficiency of water systems by using energy excesses which are typically lost. In the particular case of water supply systems, often excessive pressure exists in zones of the network conn ...

Developing an open-source database for the Zambezi river basin

Bernhard Wehrli, Anton Schleiss, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos

The Zambezi river basin, one of the largest in Africa, holds significant hydropower potential, which has yet tobe exploited. To make the most of this opportunity and address the challenges it poses, local Stakeholders must coordinate efforts, politically, ...

Influence of Hydropower Development on Flow Regime in the Zambezi River Basin for Different Scenarios of Environmental Flows

Anton Schleiss, Théodora Cohen Liechti, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos

As the need for energy is increasing, the challenges in the future are to operate existing large hydraulic schemes in more sustainable ways and to develop future water resources projects that are able to achieve a better balance between environmental and s ...

Parametric Study of Steel-Lined pressure Shafts in Anisotropic Rock

Anton Schleiss, Alexandre Jean Pachoud

Steel-lined pressure tunnels and shafts are used to convey water from the reservoir to the turbines in high-head hydroelectric power plants. An axisymmetrical multilayer model is of-ten considered by engineers for the design of the steel liner. Stresses an ...
