Hydromorphodynamic effects of the width ratio and local tributary widening on discordant confluences

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Sebastián Guillén Ludeña, António Heleno Cardoso

River training works performed in the last couple of centuries constrained the natural dynamics of channel networks in locations that include the confluences between tributaries and main channels. As a result, the dynamics of these confluences are currentl ...

Local tributary widening for river rehabilitation

Anton Schleiss, Koen Blanckaert, Marcelo Leite Ribeiro

The hydro-morpho-sedimentary processes in confluence hydrodynamic zones (CHZ) subject to a local widening of the tributary were investigated in a series of laboratory experiments that were representative of the 20 major confluences of the Upper Rhone River ...

Morphodynamic differences induced by different confluence angles in widen confluences

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Sebastián Guillén Ludeña, António Heleno Cardoso

River widening is commonly used as a solution for the rehabilitation of rivers with the main purposes of allowing the river to adjust to its natural dynamics and to improve riparian and instream habitat for flora and fauna, by increasing the heterogeneity ...

Three dimensional flow field at confluent fixed-bed open channels

Sebastián Guillén Ludeña, António Heleno Cardoso

River confluences are known for their marked 3D patterns and, due to the complexity of local flow features and bed morphology, they require particular consideration. Although there are studies on the flow structure in junctions of two streams, amore detail ...

Influence of the widening of a tributary on confluence morphology: preliminary results

Anton Schleiss, Koen Blanckaert, Marcelo Leite Ribeiro, Simon Wampfler

The aim of this work is to obtain a better understanding of the morphological development in alpine river confluences, where special attention is given to the widening of the tributary channel and its influence on bed morphology evolution. Hydraulic tests ...
