Scour is a natural phenomenon in alluvial streams around hydraulic structures due to the
removal of bed material and often leads to their failure. Scour due to jets are the most …

This study investigates the performance of six machine learning (ML) models–Random
Forest (RF), Adaptive Boosting (ADA), CatBoost (CAT), Support Vector Machine (SVM) …

Watershed characterization and its prioritization could help identify crucial sub-watersheds
for conservation and mitigation efforts. Traditional methods for determining morphometric …

Scouring of sediment materials under submerged vertical jets is shown at grade-control
structures, downstream of weirs, and submerged vertical water jets have several uses …

Hydraulic jump is a common physical phenomenon in the field of hydraulic engineering. The
essence of hydraulic jump is the conversion and dissipation of a large amount of energy due …

Hydraulic structures installed in rivers inevitably create a water level difference between
upstream and downstream regions. The potential energy due to this difference in water level …

The study of embankment breaching is not an easy practice, as it includes various
parameters to meet the suitability of the design approach, especially when we consider it for …

More than two million people live on the floodplains along the middle and lower streams of
the Yellow River. The rapid development of industry and agriculture on both sides of the …

The failure of an embankment causes loss of lives, massive damage to infrastructure and the
interruption of basic facilities; it has thus drawn increasing attention from researchers. When …

Sediment scour occurs around the bridge pier by the erosive action of the flowing river. It is
also considered as a significant factor in the collapse of bridge structures. These bridge …
