Failure Assessment of Embankment Dam Elements: Case Study of the Pirot Reservoir System
(MDPI, 2022)
The paper presents a functionality investigation of the key dam elements based on finite element analysis. A detailed analysis of filtration processes, dam strength, and the surrounding rock mass was conducted. Dam elements ...
Control theory-based data assimilation for hydraulic models as a decision support tool for hydropower systems: sequential, multi-metric tuning of the controllers
(IWA Publishing, 2021)
Increasing renewable energy usage puts extra pressure on decision-making in river hydropower systems. Decision support tools are used for near-future forecasting of the water available. Model-driven forecasting used for ...
Circular Economy in Construction and Demolition Waste Management in the Western Balkans: A Sustainability Assessment Framework
(Sustainability, 2022)
Population growth, consumerism and linear (take-make-dispose) economy models have been piling up waste for decades. The construction industry is also based primarily on linear economy models, but the good news is that most ...
Framework for Dynamic Modelling of the Dam and Reservoir System Reduced Functionality in Adverse Operating Conditions
(MDPI, 2022)
Dam and reservoir systems (DRSs) are crucial aspects of the infrastructure necessary for reliable water resource management. Nowadays, DRSs are being increasingly affected by numerous natural and anthropogenic impacts ...
Quantifying Multi-Parameter Dynamic Resilience for Complex Reservoir Systems Using Failure Simulations: Case Study of the Pirot Reservoir System
(MDPI, 2021)
The objective of this research is to introduce a novel framework to quantify the risk of
the reservoir system outside the design envelope, taking into account the risks related to floodprotection and hydro-energy generation ...
Control theory-based data assimilation for open channel hydraulic models: tuning PID controllers using multi-objective optimization
(IWA Publishing, 2022)
Reliable water resources management requires decision support tools to successfully forecast hydraulic data (stage and flow hydrographs). Even though data-driven methods are nowadays trendy to apply, they still fail to ...
Bed-mounted Electro Magnetic meters: Assessment of the (Missing) Technical Parameters
(Elsevier, 2019)
Flow measurements in Urban Drainage Systems (UDS) are essential for pollution control and system management. Since the accuracy of, today the most popular, Acoustic Doppler Velocimeters is impeded by several factors, this ...
Estimation of Changes in Sediment Transport along the Free-Flowing Middle Danube River Reach
(MDPI, 2023)
The subject of this study is an approximately 300 km long Middle Danube River reach that
spans from river kilometer (rkm) 1581 in Hungary to (rkm) 1255 in Serbia. The observed drying of
floodplains in Hungary some thirty ...
Evaluation of Green and Grey Flood Mitigation Measures in Rural Watersheds
(MDPI, 2020)
Floods cause considerable damages worldwide and mitigation of their adverse effects through effective protection measures is needed. Along with the commonly applied “grey” infrastructure, “green” measures that can offer ...
Hydrodynamic Loads in a Stilling Basin of a Converging Stepped Spillway: An Experimental Study
(MDPI, 2023)
This paper presents a methodology for estimation of hydrodynamic loads acting on the bottom and at the walls of a stilling basin of a stepped chute with converging walls, based on the pressure measurements at the selected ...
