Abstract

It is one of the important subject in river planning works to predict flow field and bed topography in the region around spur-dikes. Especially, the qualitative understanding of the mechanism of sediment deposition produced by spur-dikes enables the effective design of spur-dike collocation. However, since various complex phenomena are coexisting in the neighborhood of spur-dikes, it is necessary to investigate which phenomenon is essential for the sediment deposition around spur-dikes. In this study, a detailed observation of flow and river bed material in an area including a spur-dike in an actual river is performed, and the mechanism of sediment deposition produced by spur-dike is discussed.
