Rockfill dams are accounted as useful measures in watershed management projects. How-ever, the sediment transport through the rockfill materials, could impact their lifetime duration. Previously, researches have been conducted to describe the various hydraulically issues of the flow passing through these structures However; there is no general relationship to estimate the sediment transport rat...

in this paper, we study the plasmonic thermal conductance of ordered stacks of metallic nanorings in a host material. using second quantized formalism of the random phase approximation, we first determine the dispersion relations of surface plasmon waves on the stacks of nanorings. then, using landauer-buttiker formalism, we determine the coefficient of plasmonic thermal conductance and heat cu...

the magnetoresistance of a one-dimensional electron gas in a metallic ferromagnetic nanowire containing two atomic-size domain walls has been investigated in the presence of spin-orbit interaction. the magnetoresistance is calculated in the ballistic regime, within the landauer-büttiker formalism. it has been demonstrated that the conductance of a magnetic nanowire with double domain walls can ...

flow and sediment transport processes are different and more complex in coarse-bed rivers than in sand-bed rivers. the main goal of the present study is to evaluate different modes of sediment transport using different hydrometric and hydraulic methods, and to address the major uncertainties. four river reaches were selected as representatives of coarse-bed rivers in the northwest of iran. a se...

Suspended sediment resulted from distributed soil erosions facilitates nutrient transportation and influences soil depletion. Phosphorus (P) is one of the major limiting nutrients controlling eutrophication of surface water. Irregular P load pulsed by heavy rainfall may damage the ecological quality of downstream waters. P transport study during rainfall events is important in both predicting a...
