Discrete Phase Modelling of Sediment Transport and Scouring of Suspended Particles in Dam Spillway

One of foremost issue arise in the dam management and dam reliability assessment is the sedimentation of suspended particles. Sedimentation affected the energy production and efficiency, storage, discharge capacity, and flood attenuation capabilities. In this paper, the sediment transport and scouri...
