Abstract This study presents a novel stochastic simulation–optimization approach for optimum designing of flood control dam through incorporation of various sources of uncertainties. The optimization problem is formulated based on two objective functions, namely, annual cost of dam implementation and dam overtopping probability, as those are the two ...

Complex q‐Rung Orthopair Fuzzy N‐Soft Sets: A New Model with Applications
This research article expands the formal representation of human thinking to a most generalized hybrid theory, namely, complex q‐rung orthopair fuzzy N‐soft set. It is able to capture a great deal of graded imprecision and vagueness, which so often appear together in human interpretations.

The jet flipped from flip buckets hits the dam’s downstream side as a free jet with an immense amount of energy, leading to bed erosion. Erosion of river bed materials downstream of dams could affect the performance of dams or power plants by altering the tailwater depth, rendering proper designs of controlling structures or erosion reduction methods ...

Performance Assessment of Shockwaves of Chute Spillways in Large Dams
Spillways are the most important structures of large dams that are responsible for releasing the excessive flood discharge from the reservoir. Although many studies have been performed to determine the flow characteristics over these structures, however, the available information on the shockwaves’ characteristics for spillways’ design is limited.

A spillway is one of many important components of a dam, which is operated to prevent the dam from overtopping. Spillway with gate structures requires to have a good operation pattern by considering a minimum critical height and outflow discharge to ...

Numerical Simulation of Stepped Spillways with Front Step Deformation
In order to solve the flood discharge problem of both small‐ and medium‐sized warping dams in the Loess Plateau, a stepped spillway scheme, based on an ecological bag, to achieve full‐section water flow and energy dissipation has been proposed in this paper.

The inception point of flow aeration on a rough stepped spillway [PDF]
Stepped spillways are used in hydraulic engineering projects such as small and large dams. The inception point of aeration on such hydraulic structures is essential in determining the zones of single and two-phase flow.

Study of the relation between hydraulic jump and the flood water level in the river on the downstream of a spillway [PDF]
Kuningan Dam which is located in Kuningan District, West Java has 21,8 km2 watershed area. This dam also acts as a flood control facility which functions supported by the reservoir’s topography and its spillway building.
