Title: Sediment transport in a curved channel

Journal Article · · Hydrotech. Constr.; (United States)
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1007/BF01463885· OSTI ID:5363237

The authors construct mathematical and experimental flow models to describe the hydrodynamic behavior of sediments eroding into hydroelectric plant waterways for purposes of arriving at sediment reclamation scenarios as well as optimizing waterway design parameters for the minimization of erosion. The models simulate both straight and curved waterways and also allow the determination of the cross-sectional design.
