Assessment of groundwater hydrology of the Quaternary aquifer of Lake Chad Basin

Salehi Siavashani, Nafiseh (Date of defense: 2023-07-07)

(English) This thesis aims to enhance the conceptual model of the Lake Chad Basin's quaternary aquifer by gathering updated hydrological, geological, meteorological, and groundwater data. Objectives include analyzing natural ...

Bedload transport of sand-gravel mixtures with antidunes: flume experiments

Núñez González, Francisco (Date of defense: 2012-07-20)

In this thesis, the interaction between flow and sediment in alluvial channels is studied from an empirical approach, for conditions close or pertaining to supercritical flow, and for four types of sediment: sand, gravel ...

Comportamiento hidráulico de aliviaderos escalonados sin cajeros laterales en presas de HCR

Estrella Toral, Soledad (Date of defense: 2013-10-17)

Tradicionalmente la construcción de aliviaderos escalonados en presas de hormigón compactado con rodillo (HCR) se caracteriza por la presencia de muretes guías que imponen un ancho constante a lo largo del aliviadero y que ...

Comportamiento hidráulico de los aliviaderos escalonados en presas de hormigón compactado. Análisis del campo de presiones.

Sánchez Juny, Martí (Date of defense: 2001-05-15)

Se presentarán en este trabajo los aspectos principales del estado del conocimiento existente sobre el comportamiento hidráulico de los aliviaderos escalonados. Se analizará: la caracterización del flujo que se observa en ...

Distribución de temperatura y velocidad de embalses : análisis numérico-experimental aplicado a los embalses de Sau (Ter) y Ribarroja (Ebro)

Arbat Bofill, Marina (Date of defense: 2015-09-15)

The presence of a reservoir and its construction generate a direct impact in the rivers and in the surrounding landscape. The effects of the existing reservoirs, plus the combination of these with power plants (that use ...

Drought and flash floods risk assessment methodology

Díaz Loaiza, Manuel Andrés (Date of defense: 2015-11-20)

Floods and Drought are some of the most catastrophic natural disasters for humanity, averaging 1 to 5 billion dollar of annually damage for flood events and 6 to 8 billion dollars respectively for drought events. To avoid ...

Experimental characterization of turbulance in steep rough streams

Fernández López, Cristina (Date of defense: 2019-02-01)

Torrential flows have so far been studied less than have river flows, due to the difficulty of faithfully reproducing them in the laboratory, and the few field measurements available. For this reason, this present research ...

Experiments de flux i sedimentació de llim fi

Capapé Miralles, Sergi (Date of defense: 2017-05-18)

Research on fine sediment transport (silt and clay) is less advanced than research on sand and gravel movement. Nevertheless, fine sediment can be the predominant fraction of the suspended load in some rivers, and its ...

Hidrometeorología y balance térmico de la marisma de Doñana

Ramos Fuertes, Anaïs (Date of defense: 2012-10-23)

Doñana marshes are a wetland of ecological relevance at an international level. They are located on the right bank of the final Guadalquivir River, in the regions of Huelva and Seville in SW Spain. They occupy an area of ...

Image processing and experimental techniques to characterize the hydraulic performance of grate inlets

Tellez Alvarez, Jackson David (Date of defense: 2019-05-10)

This Doctoral Thesis dissertation concerns two main research topic: the analysis of the flow velocity pattern in the nearness of a grate inlet through Surface Flow Image Velocimetry (SFIV) technique and the study of overflow ...

Laboratory experiments to evaluate the joint effect between heterogeneity and head fluctuation on mixing, effective porosity and tailing

Castro-Alcalá, Eduardo (Date of defense: 2019-05-30)

Tracer visualization in the laboratory at high spatial and temporal resolution can help advance the study of mixing processes. However, grain borders, fluctuations in lighting and non-uniform brightness contribute to produce ...
