AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
Sediment transport hysteresis refers to the different sediment fluxes that can occur for the same discharge. For a single rainfall event, the overland flow hydrograph has rising and falling limbs, for which different hysteresis loops have been observed: (i ...
Flood protection often calls on to the realization of retention works for bed load as well as wood and debris flow. Certain relatively recent arrangements did not perform according to their intended function, what shows the complexity of the design and the ...
We investigate vegetation uprooting by flow for Avena sativa seedlings with stem-to-sediment size ratio close to unity and vanishing obstacle-induced scouring. By inducing parallel riverbed erosion within an experimental flume, we measure the time-to-uproo ...
Riprap is a common measure for protecting river banks against lateral erosion and several methods exist to design them. However, they are generally limited to dumped medium size rocks. If large rock blocks are required for stability reasons, they cannot be ...
Vegetation roots are known to increase soil stability on hillslopes, crops and river banks, thus reducing slide hazards, surface erosion and general processes affecting lateral channel migration. Many studies have tackled this classical engineering problem ...
The Hairsine-Rose (HR) model considers rainfall- and shear-driven erosion of the soil bed, overland transport and sediment deposition. Here, we consider the model for rainfall-driven erosion. The model takes account of the different erodabilities of the or ...
In environments affected by wind erosion, plants act as traps for aeolian sediment, which leads to a small-scale mosaic of depositional and erosional sediment transport regimes. This wind tunnel study used colored sand to visualize spatial patterns of sedi ...
Soil erosion due to rainfall is a complex phenomenon. Factors influencing erosion and subsequent transport include rainfall intensity, soil properties, topography, land cover and antecedent conditions. These factors and their interactions can be approximat ...
The hydraulic efficiency of sedimentation basins is reduced by short-circuiting, circulation zones and bottom particle-laden jets. Baffles are used to improve sediment tank performance. In this study, laboratory experiments were used to examine the hydrody ...
The Gebidem Dam located on the Massa River intercepts annually around 400’000 m3 of solid material. These sediments must be evacuated by annual flushing of the reservoir over 4 to 7 days. A trend for silting in the flushing channel was observed during the ...
