Sedimentation Yield Analysis of Hatnur Dam using SWAT and GIS
Abstract: Sedimentation in reservoirs throughout the world are leading to loss of reservoir storage capacitythereby reduces the useful lifetime of dams. Storage reservoirs built across rivers or streams tend tolose their water storage capacity progressively with the passage of time due to sedimentation. After thedesigned sediment deposition capacity of the reservoir, further addition in sediment deposits affectsthe reservoir regulation operations. It’s therefore necessary to assess reservoir sediment depositioncapacity and plan for …

Ensuring the Protection of Flood Embankments: A Vital Necessity
Abstract: In the face of flooding events, safeguarding flood embankments becomes imperative. These situationsoften involve rivers with significant water depth and velocity, leading to the exertion of considerablethrust due to the presence of standing water and the flow's speed. These embankments are typicallyconstructed using compacted non-cohesive soil. To prevent erosion of the embankment, it is crucial thatthe thrust of water applied to it remains within the bearing capacity limits of the …
