Basis for selection of computational relationship for determination of drift transport during development of break-out channel in bodies of homogeneous hydraulic-fill dams

  • Published:
Power Technology and Engineering Aims and scope

Approaches adopted in the modern literature for determination of the dynamics of development of break-out-channels in the bodies of earthen dams are examined as a result of emergency situations. Relationships for calculation of drift transport, which are used in channel hydraulics and pressure hydrotransport are compared. Recommendations are suggested for determination of the transporting capacity of a flow for development of break-out channels in the bodies of homogeneous hydraulic-fill earthen dams.
