  • Computations of dam-break waves in Slovenia [Elektronski vir]
    Četina, Matjaž
    Dams that were built to accumulate water for energy production, agriculture, water supply and other purposes are among most important and sophisticated engineering structures. Despite obeying high ... standards during their design andconstruction they represent a certain threat to villages and inhabitants living downstream. A state of the art review of dam-break wave and debris flowcomputations in Slovenia are given in the article. Among others three practical case studies are shown more into detail: simulation of dam-break waves in the chain of hydro power plants on the lower Sava River where also the nuclear power plant Krško is situated, a wave resulting from a potential dam-break of the upper storage reservoir of the planned pumping power plant Kozjak in NE Slovenia and computations of landslide initiated debris flow in Log pod Mangartom, NW Slovenia.
