RESPONSE OF WOODY DEBRIS FOR FLOWS AROUND HYDRAULIC STRUCTURES

Woody debris

1. Maximum rate of cut that would provide a hillslope landslide rate of <20% over background, assuming no areas are protected by no-cut buffers .. Summary Downstream impacts to aquatic environments and property generally occur as cumulative watershed impacts, which are usually caused by changes in the transport of woody debris, water, and sediment through a watershed. The downstream cumulative ...

Woody debris research: Overview

Fallen woody debris, standing dead trees (taller than 1.3 m) and stumps (shorter than 1.3 m) constitute a large portion of total above-ground carbon in tropical and temperate forests (Keller et al. 2004; Rice et al. 2004). In addition to being an important carbon pool, aboveground necromass is important in nutrient cycling, water retention, fuel load, and as resources for many organisms. Despit...

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
