Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1Morphological Analysis of Büyük Menderes River Over the Years Using Satellite Imagery(IAHR-Int Assoc Hydro-Environment Engineering Research, 2023) Bor, Asli; Hazar, Oguz; Elci, SebnemBoth bank erosion and sediment deposition on the inner margins are important watershed management problems for streams. Bank erosion not only causes the loss of agricultural lands, but also leads to the narrowing of the cross sections of the streams with the accumulation of sediment in the interior, resulting in floods, damage to the cultivated areas, reduction in dam reservoir lifespan and thus, serious damage to a country's economy. In this study, the morphological analysis of the B. Menderes River, which is one of the most important rivers of Turkey and a residential and intensive agriculture region, for the thirty-year period between 1990-2020 is made via utilization of QGIS for the analysis of Landsat satellite images. This study is thought to be a preliminary study to quantify the morphological changes in B.Menderes River and is expected to be a basis for linking these changes to the changes in the hydrological regime in the basin. During this analysis, the shoreline of the main river, approximately 570 km long, was divided into 10 segments and the sinuosity index values, which are fold parameters, were calculated for each segment. According to the study, it is found that the curvature of the meanders of the B. Menderes River varies between 1.5 and 2.5 in most places.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 3Experimental Study of the Evolution of the Breach and the Discharge Through the Breach Resulting From Piping Due To Seepage at the Earth-Fill Dam Top(Iahr-int Assoc Hydro-environment Engineering Research, 2022) Guney, Mehmet Sukru; Okan, Merve; Dumlu, Emre; Bor, Asli; Aklik, Pelin; Tayfu, GokmenInternal erosion, also known as piping, is one of the most important causes of earth-fill dam breaks. Many researchers dealing with numerical analyses in this area make some simplified assumptions about the shape of the breach and the discharge of water flowing through the breach. This study was conducted in the scope of the project supported financially by the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey and it consists of experimental study which aims to provide data needed to perform numerical analyses with more realistic approaches. A dam with a height of 0.6 m, a bottom width of 2 m and a crest width of 0.20 m was built in a flume 1 m wide, 0.81 m high and 6.14 m long. Before the construction of the dam, some common soil mechanics tests were carried out. The dam was constructed by using a mixture consisting of 85 % sand and 15 % clay. A circular tunnel with a diameter of 2 cm was created along the centerline at 6 cm below the dam crest. In the closed system, water was pumped from the lower reservoir to the upper channel. Six cameras located at different locations recorded the evolution of the dam failure. Gauss Area formula was applied to determine the time-varied of the breach areas at upstream and downstream sides. The discharge of water through the breach and average flow velocity were determined by using the continuity equation. The changes in water depth in the channel were also recorded.
