Experimental investigations on plunge pool protection measures for Ilarion Dam in Greece

Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Azin Amini, Romain Nathan Hippolyte Merlin Van Mol

Ilarion Dam is a 130 m high earthfill dam at Aliakmon River in northern Greece. The dam was commissioned in 2010. It has two spillway tunnels with ski jumps at the outlets. The two spillways are designed to release a total discharge of 5'500 m3/s during th ...

Flow structure and grain motion assessments of large river widening in a physical model using ultrasonic Doppler velocity measurements

Giovanni De Cesare, Azin Amini, Jean-Noël Saugy

Local river widening aims to reduce the flood risk and enable the self-morphodynamic development of the river. However, a large amount of transported sediments settles due to the flow velocity reduction in the widening. Assessing the flow and the grain mot ...

Plunge pool scour and bank erosion: assessment of protection measures for Ilarion dam by physical and numerical modelling

Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Azin Amini, Romain Nathan Hippolyte Merlin Van Mol, Christian Mörtl

The 130 m high Ilarion Dam is built on the Aliakmon River in northern Greece. Its two spillways are equipped with ski jumps to deflect high-velocity jets towards the centre of the plunge pool. Significant scouring occurred in the pool during two major floo ...

Effect of the winglet on reduction of blade tip vortex from elliptical hydrofoil

Mohamed Farhat, Azin Amini

It is well known that the performance of the turbomachinery (losses, vibrations, noise, and erosion) is often affected by the trailing vortex from the blade tip (Tip Leakage Vortex; TLV) of the impeller or propeller, and sometimes cavitation occurs in the ...

River morphology and sediment transport processes numerical modeling applied to the fluvial environment of the Rhône River in Valais

Giovanni De Cesare, Azin Amini, Jean-Noël Saugy, Francesc Molné Correig

Within the frame of the Third Rhône Correction, the river bend in Martigny is considered a top priority measure for flood protection. During the preliminary project, physical and numerical modeling tests were considered necessary. For the latter, the softw ...

Bedload transport assessment on a physical model of a large river widening using ultrasonic Doppler velocity measurements

Giovanni De Cesare, Azin Amini, Jean-Noël Saugy

The 3rd correction of the Rhône River is the largest flood protection project in Switzerland so far. Covering a length of 162 km, it aims to protect some 100,000 people and prevent flood damages, which could raise up to 10 billion Swiss francs for major ev ...

Third correction of the Rhône River in Switzerland: physical and numerical modelling of the “Martigny bend” priority measure

Giovanni De Cesare, Azin Amini, Stéphanie Joëlle André, Irene Almeida Samora, Pierre Bourqui, Jean-Noël Saugy

The Rhône River, second largest in Switzerland, has already been corrected twice (1863-1893; 1930-1960) to ensure safety and economic development in the Rhône valley. However, in October 2000, the highest flood of the century occurred showing the limitatio ...
