Book Synopsis Investigating Basic Principles of River Dike Improvement by : Warren E. Walker
Download or read book Investigating Basic Principles of River Dike Improvement written by Warren E. Walker and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines the consequences of alternative policies for providing flood protection to the non-tidal branches of the Rijn and the Maas rivers in the Netherlands. It is the only English language volume in a set of volumes produced by a consortium of research organizations that conducted this policy study. It focuses on estimating the flood damage that would occur under alternative safety levels, estimating the financial costs of alternative dike improvement strategies, and assessing the impacts of alternative flood protection policies. The primary objective of the impact assessment is to look for policies that would provide a high level of safety, would not cost too much, and would preserve as much as possible of the existing landscape and natural and cultural values along the rivers.

Download or read book Laboratory Research on Design of Dikes for River Regulation written by John J. Franco and published by . This book was released on 1966 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need for the development of basic principles which can be used as a guide in the design of spur dikes or rock groins for the regulation and improvement of rivers, and a laboratory investigation of undertaken for this purpose are discussed. The investigation was designed to determine some of the factors which affect the performance of dikes as well as factors which should be considered in the design of dikes. Also discussed is a system for evaluating the performance of dikes and for correlating laboratory and field results.

Book Synopsis Matching Research and Policy in Integrated Water Management by : Johannes Wisserhof
Download or read book Matching Research and Policy in Integrated Water Management written by Johannes Wisserhof and published by Coronet Books. This book was released on 1994 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Scientific research is often disciplinary fragmented, being focused on a single aspect of reality. Public policy, however, generally requires the consideration of a wide variety of aspects. In the area of water resources management, this comprehensive nature of policy has led to the evolution of integrated water management. How, then, can research results be integrated to meet the information needs of policymakers in this area? In this book, that question is examined on the basis of literature research and case studies, and a framework is proposed for optimum utilization of research for integrated water policy."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Synopsis Model-prototype Comparison Study of Dike Systems, Mississippi River by : John J. Franco
Download or read book Model-prototype Comparison Study of Dike Systems, Mississippi River written by John J. Franco and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In connection with the MRC Potamology Program, movable-bed models studies were conducted of seven of the most complex and troublesome reaches of the Mississippi River to obtain some quick general indications of the effectiveness of plans proposed for the improvement and stabilization of those reaches. Because of the limited time available, the studies were conducted in an existing facility with little or no adjustment of the models and in some cases without a base test. Because of the limited size and shape of the facility available, only a relatively short reach of the river including the problem could be reproduced in each model with little or no overbank areas. The horizontal scales varied with each reach depending on its size and shape and were much smaller with a higher distortion of the linear scales than was considered desirable for studies of this type. An analysis of the model results compared with developments in the river based on an evaluation of considerable prototype data indicated that the types of models used predicted, at least qualitatively, most of the principal trends that actually occurred in the river with the plans tested. The degree of accuracy of the models varied and depended to a considerable extent on the model adjustment, characteristics of the reach, flow conditions, and similarity between plan tested and actual construction.
