Experimental Study on Erosion and Sedimentation Patterns Downstream of a W-weir in a Sinusoidal Mild Bend

Experimental Study on Erosion and Sedimentation Patterns Downstream of a W-weir in a Sinusoidal Mild Bend

Erosion in river bends causes loss of agricultural lands, adjacent facilities, and fish habitat. W-weir structures are recommended for controlling and reducing soil erosion as well as developing habitat for fish and other aquatic organisms. This paper presents the results of an experimental study ca...
