Many rivers around the globe are characterized by steep gradients, leading to intense water
velocity during flood events, often resulting in spur dikes being submerged. This study …

This study aimed to devise strategies for alleviating the detrimental impacts of floods in the
vicinity of a dike. Experiments were conducted in an open rectangular channel to investigate …

A high energy flow around a dike head is a dominant factor contributing to partial or
complete failure of the dike. Due to the absence of sophisticated analyses, dike failure is not …

Spur dikes, vital for enhancing river ecosystem biodiversity, also contribute to the creation of
intricate flow patterns and scour phenomena. In the context of existing research, which …

A flood protection dike blends seamlessly with natural surroundings. These dikes stand as
vital shields, mitigating the catastrophic effects of floods and preserving both communities …

The basic purpose of the present research is to numerically elucidate the flow around a
single dike in four different geometric configurations (CN: no cylinders, C5: 5 cylinders, C10 …

Spur dike field (SDF) have recently gained attention as habitats for aquatic life. However,
limited knowledge exists on how different configurations of roughness elements (RE) …

The flow dynamics and river geomorphology are influenced by vegetation patches, which
naturally exist in various patterns. Previous studies have not explored the effect of vegetation …

Spur dikes are pivotal elements in river training, serving to mitigate the dynamic alterations
induced by river degradation and aggradation. Traditionally, scour prediction models have …

Intense energy flow near the dike head significantly influences the development of the dike
field zone (DFZ), momentum exchange zone (MEZ), and mainstream zone (MSZ), leading to …
