The use of geo-sensors in mountain rivers becomes more and more frequent. It provides valuable continuous time series of bedload transport discharge at high temporal resolution that are essential to evaluate, compare and fit theoretical model.This increasi ...
Local scour around the obstacles such as bridge pier is the result of complex interaction between turbulent flow and sediment particles at the mobile bed. The entrainment of sediment particles from the bed is stochastic in nature and it is strongly influen ...
The sediment transport capacity of the Avançon river through the city of Bex in Switzerland is limited. During the October 2000 flood event, water levels rose to danger limits. After the flood, the river channel was completely filled with sediments, with a ...
When applied to mountain torrents, sediment transport formulae habitually overestimate the bedload by several orders of magnitude, even if they have been developed for steep slopes. The reason is that the influence of macro-roughness elements, such as larg ...
The earth's surface is permanently exposed to the atmosphere and accordingly to strong wind forces in many regions. Aerodynamic entrainment, transport and redeposition of sand, soil or snow are able to considerably reshape the surface morphology and influe ...
The Milibach River between Hasliberg-Reuti and Meiringen agglomerations in Switzerland has a limited hydraulic capacity leading to frequent flooding. During the 2005 flood event, large populated areas were inundated and damages exceeding many millions of S ...
Le torrent du Milibach présente une capacité hydraulique insuffisante conduisant à des débordements fréquents dans le village de Meiringen notamment. Ce manque de capacité est dû essentiellement à l’accumulation de sédiments dans le lit du cours d’eau pend ...
As several of other run-of:river hydropower plants, the hydraulic scheme of Lavey on the Rhone River in Switzerland is concerned by continuous reservoir sedimentation. To determine the flood evacuation capacity of the weir as well as the flow distribution ...
Reservoir sedimentation hinders the operation of the Lavey run-of-river hydropower plant (HPP) on the Rhone River in Switzerland. Deposits upstream of the gated weir and the lateral water intake reduce the flood release capacity and entrain sediments into ...
In alpine regions of Europe, river training works were typically the reason for the transformation of wide and braided rivers into linear river systems with a lack of structural diversity, i.e. gravel banks, islands, woody debris, riffles or pools. These i ...
