Using surface flow image velocimetry to analyse flow approaching grated inlets
(Emerald Publishing Limiting, 2020-06)
Article
Open AccessThis paper describes the use of surface flow image velocimetry (SFIV) to analyse flow velocity fields near grated inlets. This will help to understand the flow-capture process of grated inlets and improve their design. The ... -
Experimental investigation to estimate the discharge coefficient of a grate inlet under surcharge conditions
(2020-02)
Article
Open AccessPressure pipe flow conditions appear in sewer systems when flow exceeds the hydraulic capacity of the conduit, causing some outflow to be produced. In these cases, water exits through manholes and inlets causing surface ... -
IberWQ: new simulation tool for 2D water quality modelling in rivers and shallow estuaries
(2016-09)
Article
Open AccessThis paper presents a new freeware simulation tool (IberWQ) for 2D water quality modelling in rivers and non-stratified estuaries. The model computes the spatial and temporal evolution of several species and variables which ... -
Physical modeling of a stepped spillway without sidewalls
(2015-05)
Article
Open AccessThe interest of a consulting company in designing stepped spillways in roller compacted concrete (RCC) dams led us to propose the possibility of building this type of spillway without sidewalls. Previous research on stepped ... -
A machine learning-based surrogate model for the identification of risk zones due to off-stream reservoir failure
(2022-08)
Article
Open AccessApproximately 70,000 Spanish off-stream reservoirs, many of them irrigation ponds, need to be evaluated in terms of their potential hazard to comply with the new national Regulation of the Hydraulic Public Domain. This ... -
'SUDS-lineales' para reducir el riesgo de inundación considerando escenarios de Cambio Climático
(2022-04)
Article
Open AccessLos Sistemas Urbanos de Drenaje Sostenible (SUDS) suponen una alternativa válida para dar solución a diversos problemas del drenaje urbano. Su aplicación, generalmente de carácter puntual, es limitada y puede no ser efectiva ... -
Revisiting the hydraulics of the Aznalcóllar mine disaster
(2022-06)
Article
Open AccessThe Aznalcóllar tailings pond failure (1998) is regarded as one of the severe ecological mine disasters ever reported. The spill of the mine tailings affected more than 60 km of the Agrio and Guadiamar rivers and caused ... -
Experimental characterization and two-dimensional hydraulic-hydrologic modelling of the infiltration process through permeable pavements
(2022-03)
Article
Open AccessPermeable pavements are a common solution for wearing course layers in roads and urban areas. They are composed by highly porous materials with permeability several orders of magnitude above of the natural terrain. This ... -
Numerical and experimental approaches to estimate discharge coefficients and energy loss coefficients in pressurized grated inlets
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2021-12)
Article
Open AccessNumerical models concerning inlet systems are run to assess the hydraulic performance of existing or new systems and estimate the flow interchanges between the surface overland and sewer flows. In most programs, these ... -
Application of the KINEROS 2 model to natural basin for estimation of erosion
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2021-10)
Article
Open AccessThis study compares different methods to calculate erosion and sedimentation processes in the Aviar Basin, a natural peri-urban basin located in Comúd’Encamp (Andorra). The basin area is small, covering less than one square ... -
Interpreting the manning roughness coefficient in overland flow simulations with coupled hydrological-hydraulic distributed models
(2021-12)
Article
Open AccessThere is still little experience on the effect of the Manning roughness coefficient in coupled hydrological-hydraulic distributed models based on the solution of the Shallow Water Equations (SWE), where the Manning coefficient ... -
Field monitoring of brine pipeline facility in the central region of Catalonia, Spain
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2021-11)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe potash mines located in the central region of Catalonia generate waste brines that are transported and discharged beneath the sea on the Catalan central coast through a pipeline facility more than 100 km long. The ...
