Stochastic Simulations and Machine Learning Modeling to Predict Bedload Transport and Bed Topography

In computational hydraulics models, predicting bed topography and bedload transport with sufficient accuracy remains a significant challenge. An accurate assessment of a river's sediment transport rate necessitates a prior understanding of its bed topograp ...

Exploring the efficacy of reservoir fine sediment management measures through numerical simulations

Giovanni De Cesare, Azin Amini, Samuel Luke Vorlet, Montana Marshall

Reservoir sedimentation is one of the main challenges in the sustainable operation of large reservoirs because it causes volume loss, affecting hydropower production capacity, dam safety, and flood management. To ensure the sustainability of deep reservoir ...

Biomorphodynamics of river banks in vegetated channels with self-formed width

Paolo Perona

Laboratory and field studies investigating the mutual interaction between riparian vegetation dynamics and river morphodynamics have revealed that riparian vegetation may play an important role in the evolution of channel beds and river banks. In order to ...

Dynamic Effective Porosity Explains Laboratory Experiments on Watertable Fluctuations in Coastal Unconfined Aquifers

David Andrew Barry, Zhaoyang Luo

Watertable fluctuations are a characteristic feature of coastal unconfined aquifers. They interact with the vadose zone creating a dynamic effective porosity, for which a new (empirical) expression is proposed based on a dimensionless parameter related to ...

Decadal shoreline erosion and recovery of beaches in modified and natural estuaries

Vincent Henri De Staercke

Sandy beaches in estuaries and bays (BEBs) are common landforms on the coasts of many major cities. They exist under a wide range of settings and their morphology is controlled by their distance from the estuary/bay entrance, exposure to different types of ...

Effects of aquifer geometry on seawater intrusion in annulus segment island aquifers

David Andrew Barry, Zhaoyang Luo

Seawater intrusion in island aquifers was considered analytically, specifically for annulus segment aquifers (ASAs), i.e., aquifers that (in plan) have the shape of an annulus segment. Based on the Ghijben–Herzberg and hillslope-storage Boussinesq equation ...

Appendix: Regionalisation in high share renewable energy system modelling

François Maréchal, Jonas Schnidrig, Tuong-Van Nguyen, Xiang Li

This document corresponds to the appendix of the paper Regionalisation in high share renewable energy system modelling by Schnidrig et al. in redaction, and is based on the Master thesis of Amara Slaymaker 2021, giving additional information about the meth ...

Erosion, transport and deposition of a sediment replenishment under flood conditions

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Christopher Robinson

River reaches downstream of dams with constant residual discharge often lack sediment supply and periodic high flows due to dam sediment retention and flow regulation, respectively. To test a novel multi-deposit methodology for defining environmental flows ...

Eco-Morphological Evaluation of a Residual Flow Reach Restoration Measure

Robin Schroff

It is a complex and challenging task to evaluate the effects of a river restoration measure on the riverscape’s habitat mosaic. This study investigated the medium term effects of a restoration measure in a residual flow reach downstream of a hydroelectric ...

Weight Erosion: An Update Aggregation Scheme for Personalized Collaborative Machine Learning

Martin Jaggi, Mary-Anne Hartley, Sai Praneeth Reddy Karimireddy, Felix Hans Michel Grimberg

Background. In medicine and other applications, the copying and sharing of data is impractical for a range of well-considered reasons. With federated learning (FL) techniques, machine learning models can be trained on data spread across several locations w ...
