Reservoirs are essential structures to provide reliable water supply, hydropower, and flood
control. Climate change could be a significant factor that increases the sediment yield …

This paper presents a systematic analysis of the hydraulic flushing capacity of a stored
volume of water to remove sediments. This analysis is based on 90 laboratory experiments …

The Unazuki Reservoir is located on the Kurobe River, which is influenced by a catchment
with one of the highest sediment yields in Japan. Due to a sufficiently available discharge …

Reservoir sedimentation is known to be a key issue worldwide. One operational measure to
deal with sediment accumulations is flushing; however, efficiency is often lacking. The goal …

The intense monsoon and typhoon rains and frequent earthquakes lead to rapid
sedimentation rates in Taiwan's reservoir. With its high sediment yield, about one-third of the …

Sedimentation reduces the operability and sustainability of dam reservoirs, and has been an
issue for operators and owners. The dam outlet may be blocked by deposited sediments and …
