Abstract:Dams are important structures that are mainly constructed for water and energy supply. Dam break creates a huge flow that leads to flooding in areas downstream. Therefore, determining characteristics of this flow, including the flow depth and wave propagation velocity, is of great importance. In this research, the simultaneous effects of reservoir geometries and downstream obstacles on hydrodynamic characteristics of the flow caused by dam break have been investigated using three-dimensional numerical modeling… Show more
