Effect of reservoir side slopes on dam-break flood waves

Dam failure causes catastrophic flooding and immense damage downstream. There are many factors that affect the magnitude of such flash floods. In this study the influence of reservoir side slopes on dam-break hydrographs and water levels was investigated using experimental and numerical methods. Ide...
