Even though the saturation in water of most natural and engineered soils is partial, constitutive models in geotechnical engineering have long made the assumption of complete saturation. The increasing knowledge of the rheological behaviour of unsaturated ...
The Hongrin north dam is a double curvature concrete arch dam located in western Swiss Prealps, which attains 125m high. The right bank abutment of the dam mainly consists of intensively jointed Neocomian limestone and exhibits zones of potential instabili ...
Four gravel unconstrained flow experiments were modelled with the DAN-3D and RASH-3D codes. Both the codes, based on continuum mechanics, were developed for the propagation of rapid landslides, like rock avalanches. The codes were at first run to back-calc ...
Numerical and Experimental Analysis of Free Surface Flow in a 3D Non-Rotating Pelton Bucket Low frequency fluctuations often occur in hydraulic installations equipped with fixed bladed turbines or pumps operating under off design conditions. Passive measur ...
Low frequency fluctuations often occur in hydraulic installations equipped with fixed bladed turbines or pumps operating under off design conditions. Passive measures, such as air ad- mission or minor design modifications, are commonly taken as a last reso ...
The influence of a new aeration system on the biopile performance was investigated. The purpose was to increase biodegradation efficiency by optimising airflow through the pile. During a 1-month field trial, the performance of a new system using two perfor ...
An experimental study of flow in a Francis hydraulic turbine, especially designed for the GAMM Workshop, has been carried out. In order to provide a data base for the validation and comparison of computational fluid dynamics codes, a Francis turbine mode! ...
Infiltration into the soil is restricted if the movement of displaced air is hampered. In this study, separate infiltration experiments were performed where the air could escape only through capillary glass tubes (three different diameters were used). Cont ...
