Sediment and weir

Hello,

Sediments are settling upstream of a weir, and downstream the bed of the river is eroding. When the flow rises some sediments from upstream are settling downstream. How can I encode this in BASEMENT?

Thank you in advance

Re: Sediment and weir

Hi Manon,

can you be more specific? Do you need to simulate it in 1D or in 2D?

Generally you can set an INNER_BOUNDARY in the HYDRAULICS block and set the weir parameters. Afterwards the simulation should work as you say.

Hope this helps

Cheers,

Matteo
