The performance of collars on scour reduction at tandem piers aligned with different skew angles

Giovanni De Cesare, Anton Schleiss, Sargol Memar

Local scouring is a leading cause of bridge collapses. To protect bridges against local scouring, different countermeasures have been proposed and tested in the literature. In this study, the performance of collars was evaluated for scour reduction at two ...

Erosion, transport and deposition of a sediment replenishment under flood conditions

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Christopher Robinson, Severin Stähly

River reaches downstream of dams with constant residual discharge often lack sediment supply and periodic high flows due to dam sediment retention and flow regulation, respectively. To test a novel multi-deposit methodology for defining environmental flows ...

Effect of debris damming on wave-induced hydrodynamic loads against free-standing buildings with openings

Anton Schleiss, Michael Pfister, Davide Wüthrich, Claudia Ylla Arbos

Tsunamis, impulse waves, and dam-break waves are rare but catastrophic events, associated with casualties and damage to infrastructures. An adequate description of these waves is vital to assure human safety and to generate resilient structures. Furthermor ...

A risk-based multi-level stress test methodology: application to six critical non-nuclear infrastructures in Europe

Anton Schleiss, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos, Daniela Rodrigues

Recent natural disasters that seriously affected critical infrastructure (CI) with significant socio-economic losses and impact revealed the need for the development of reliable methodologies for vulnerability and risk assessment. In this paper, a risk-bas ...

Bemessung von klassischen Tosbecken unterhalb von Treppenschussrinnen

Giovanni De Cesare, Anton Schleiss, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos, Michael Pfister, Ivan Stojnic

Aufgrund des Fortschritts im Talsperrenbau mit Walzbeton (RCC) werden weltweit häufig Treppenschussrinnen erstellt. Nach jeder Schussrinne ist ein hydraulisches Bauwerk zur Energiedissipation vorzusehen, beispielsweise ein Tosbecken. Obwohl die Hydraulik v ...

Bottom pressure characteristics in a stilling basin downstream of a stepped spillway for two different chute slopes

Anton Schleiss, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos, Michael Pfister, Ivan Stojnic

In the last decades numerous stepped spillways were built, mostly on the downstream face of roller compacted concrete (RCC) dams. Stilling basins are often used as an energy dissipater. Although the hydraulics of stepped chutes was extensively investigated ...

Effect of building overtopping on induced loads during extreme hydrodynamic events

Anton Schleiss, Michael Pfister, Davide Wüthrich, Ioan Nistor

Tsunamis, impulse-waves and dam-break waves have affected humanity in recent decades and the construction of vertical shelters can provide safety to people. However, for non-critical infrastructures, typically residential houses of lower height, overtoppin ...

Synergies entre la production hydroélectrique et la protection contre les crues : cas d'étude de la Sihl en Suisse

Frédéric Jordan, Anton Schleiss, Pedro Filipe De Almeida Manso, Fränz Zeimetz

Située à la confluence de deux cours d'eau – la Limmat et la Sihl – la ville de Zurich a toujours dû faire face aux crues. Suite aux crues de 2005, un projet de dérivation de la Sihl vers le lac de Zurich en amont de la ville a été lancé. En alternative à ...

Recent developments on management and release techniques of fine sediments in reservoirs

Anton Schleiss

Sedimentation is known as the process of filling up natural lakes and manmade reservoirs by sediment transforming finally into floodplaimns. Its main reason is the sediment yield transported by rivers as suspended or bed load into the reservoirs. Reservoir ...

Continuously-fed gravity currents propagating over a finite porous substrate

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Sara Venuleo

We present the results of laboratory investigations of continuously-fed density currents that propagate first over a smooth horizontal bed and then over a porous substrate of limited length. Inflow discharge, initial excess density, and substrate porositie ...

Influence of geometrical parameters of chamfered or rounded orifices on head losses

Giovanni De Cesare, Anton Schleiss, Nicolas Jean François Pascal Ghislain Adam

Orifices are largely used in pipeline systems. The most common application is to measure the discharge of the water flowing through. However, orifices may be used to adapt hydroelectric power plants submitted to moderate increase of installed generation ca ...

Potential increase in energy storage capacity in the Swiss Alps to support the massive development of renewables: Case study of the Grande Dixence hydropower scheme

Anton Schleiss, Pedro Filipe De Almeida Manso, Blaise Monay, Jérôme François Sylvain Dujardin

Only 42 % of the mean annual production of large hydropower plants in the Swiss Alps is stored in their reservoirs. Once the reservoirs are full at the end of the summer semester, plants are operated as run-on-the-river in order to avoid spilling. A signif ...

Sediment replenishment combined with an artificial flood improves river habitats downstream of a dam

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Christopher Robinson, Severin Stähly

River reaches downstream dams where a constant residual flow discharge is imposed, often lack sediment supply and periodic inundation due to the absence of natural flood events. In this study, a two-year return flood was released from an upstream reservoir ...

Bottom slope influence on flow and bedload transfer through contractions

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

In-stream open check dams are essential for flood protection at mountain rivers that are characterized by steep slopes (>1%) and sediment-laden flood discharges. These structures comprise an opening acting as a lateral or vertical flow contraction to force ...

Floodplain Land Cover and Flow Hydrodynamic Control of Overbank Sedimentation in Compound Channel Flows

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Carmelo Juez Jiménez, Hannes Jenny

Overbank sedimentation is predominantly due to fine sediments transported under suspension that become trapped and settle in floodplains when high-flow conditions occur in rivers. In a compound channel, the processes of exchanging water and fine sediments ...
