Optimal Water Allocation for an Alpine Hydropower System Under Changing Scenarios [PDF]
The operating rules of water allocation in the alpine OFIMA hydropower network of the Maggia River basin (Canton Tessin, Switzerland) are investigated in response to changes in the production policy and environmental and climatic factors.

Abstract Addressing the limitations of traditional overtopping risk analysis methods, which either consider only a single failure mode or fail to accurately characterize the nonlinear characteristics of reservoir levels, this paper proposes a novel overtopping risk model for dams.

Abstract The escalating frequency and magnitude of floods pose significant challenges to traditional flood control measures with fixed defense capacities, such as levees, dams, and reservoirs. Flood Detention Areas (FDAs) have been widely implemented in many countries as solutions to extreme flood events, functioning by temporarily holding excess ...

Abstract In hydropower (HP) reservoirs, the large and rapid variations in water level can destabilize the ice cover, posing hazards to people and wildlife crossing the surface. Monitoring ice conditions to control safety in such systems is often challenging, and the role of water level regulation strategies on ice stability is not yet fully understood,

The Hydraulics of Stepped Chutes and Spillways [PDF]
The stepped channel design have been used for more than 3,500 years (chapter 2). A significant number of dams were built with overflow stepped spillways during the 19th century and early 20th century, before the design technique became outdated with the ...
