DOI: 10.1007/s11440-021-01162-4
Abstract: Baffles and check-dam systems are often used as granular flow (rock avalanches, debris flows, etc.) control structures in regions prone to dangerous geological hazards leading to massive landslides. This paper explores the use of numerical… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s12205-020-2368-0
Abstract: Vertical mass isolation (VMI) method is used for the seismic control of structures. In this method, the entire structure is considered to be a combination of two mass and stiffness subsystems with an isolator layer… read more here.

DOI: 10.2166/hydro.2017.149
Abstract: Grade-control structures (GCS) are commonly used to protect fish habitat by preventing excessive river-bed degradation in mountain streams. However, flow over the GCS can cause localized scour immediately downstream of the weir. This paper aims… read more here.
