Stability Analysis of Green Revetment Media Using Hydraulic Model

Article Preview

Abstract:

Applicability and hydraulic evaluation of green revetment media which have improved physical structure are evaluated by the hydraulic model experiments. Results of the study on the relative erosion rates of base materials by the location of method and presence of vegetation, the green revetment had stability up to the limit of 1m distance, 1.5kg/m2 water pressure and 2 min of experimental duration. In addition, maintaining good rooting of vegetation would be beneficial to prevent erosion of revetment media during the flood as the resistance to the water pressure increases when the vegetation is applied in the river revetment.
