s: Calculation of sediment load through Rivers is one of basic issues through designing of Hydraulic structures. Studies about possibility of dam hydro and power plant and other hydraulic structure without consider of sedimentation behavior has very important role practically. Some empirical experience has been presented experimentally, defining and modifying of these equations and presentation...

Water quality samples are typically collected less frequently than flow since water quality sampling is costly. Load Estimator (LOADEST), provided by the United States Geological Survey, is used to predict water quality concentration (or load) on days when flow data are measured so that the water quality data are sufficient for annual pollutant load estimation. However, there is a need to ident...

Deposition of sediment inside the conduit structures reduces the flow cross section area and increases the flow roughness which causes reduction of flow discharge passing through the conduit. Among the methods which can prevent sediment deposition is non sedimentation condition in the structure, Since the critical section of the inverted siphon in sedimentation is the outlet. In the begining of...

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...

The water level and flow of middle and small rivers has been achieved online-monitoring. However, the sediment detection is still in the manual observation. We propose the sediment online-detection system of in flow-water based on image analysis. We capture the underwater images by special camera device, and then transmit images to monitoring centers through channel. Furthermore, we implement s...

Sediment rating curve (SRC) is a conventional and a common regression model in estimating suspended sediment load (SSL) of flow discharge. However, in most cases the data log-transformation in SRC models causing a bias which underestimates SSL prediction. In this study, using the daily stream flow and suspended sediment load data from Shalman hydrometric station on Shalmanroud River, Guilan Pro...

The fall velocity of sediment particles plays a key role in sediment transport studies. Researchers have attempted to determine the terminal fall velocity, and most of the studies in this regard have been based on experimental, quasi-experimental, and in-situ measurements. The present study aimed to use a numerical model to estimate the fall velocity of a single sediment particle in distilled a...
