Reservoir sedimentation is of worldwide concern, involving not only reservoir benefits, but
environmental and ecological issues. Sediment flushing is one of the most common and …

Reservoir sedimentation is a serious challenge in many regions of the world and has severe
consequences for water management, flood control, and generation of energy. The purpose …

A scour funnel before a bottom orifice on a dam is able to help intaking water with low
sediment concentration and thus protect the water turbine. Appropriate placement of pier …

Sedimentation in front of a dam is the main obstacle against reservoir sustainability. Due to
the limited availability of suitable new dam sites, the ramifications of inefficient sediment …

Accurate measurements of sediment flushing cone geometry (SFCG) are essential for
determining sediment removal efficiency in reservoirs. SFCG measurements are related to …

Siltation significantly threatens a reservoir's original storage capacity and lifespan. Pressure
flushing is an effective measure against siltation through the partial drawdown of the …

Abstract Analysis was carried out in a straight open channel with an approximate discharge
of 0.22 cubic meters per second (m3 s− 1). Pattern of the circulation was found at different …

The tanks' useful life will be reduced if their sediments are not discharged with a suitable
method. Various hydraulic and mechanical methods can be used in many countries to …

At the multigate sluice structure on a fluvial river, undesired sediment deposition affects the
normal operation of the reservoir in question. Physical and numerical models are hybridized …

Sedimentation is a significant challenge for reservoir operations. To implement targeted
management actions, reservoir siltation must be quantified through field measurement …
