Research on Simulation Technique of Shoal Protection Works in Middle and Lower Reaches of Yangtze River

Abstract

The shoal protection works in the middle and lower Yangtze River is divided three types, i.e. riprap in bulk, dam body and soft mattress. As a new kind of shoal protection works, because the application time is very short, therefore the beach protection effect and the improvement measure have not thorough researched. In order to better apply to channel regulation project, the simulation technique of the X-type flexible mattress is thorough researched, the aspects of geometry similarity, gravity similarity, plan layout similarity and river bed deformation similarity are solved, the physical simulation technology problem is realized.
