Sediment diversion to water and irrigation networks has always been one of the major
problems in engineering projects. This article reviews the previous research on applying …

Groynes are man-made hydraulic structures constructed for a variety of purposes. They
extend outside the bank in the depth of streams. Local scour usually occurs around groynes …

Spur diNes are used widely as flow control structures in rivers. The main direction of the flow
is changed by a spur diNe, which is accompanied by formation of separation and …

Sedimentation at intakes of drinking water treatment plants (DWTPs) clogs intake pipe inlets
causing interruption of water supply and serious pump abrasion. It occurs due to river flow …

This study was initiated to introduce non-submerged spur dikes as training structures to
reduce erosion at the opposite bank to diversion channel at Naga Hammadi barrage …

River training structures; such as groynes; are efficient engineered methods utilized to
protect eroding river banks. But during groynes design stage; the designers faces one of the …

This paper presents a series of experiments conducted for permeable and impermeable
spur-dike in a rectangular channel. The coconut coir carpets have been used as a bed …

Groins (spur dikes) are structures constructed at an angle to the flow in order to deflect the
flowing water away from critical zones. The main objectives of the study are to investigate …

The Nile River is recognized as an alluvial river with high morphological changes.
Sedimentation is a key issue affecting the management of water resources. Concerning …
