Erosion modeling of Jajrud river banks Between Letyan and Mamlu damsJajrud, Tehran

Rivers in their path are always struggling with a phenomenon called erosion, which on the one hand causes many changes in the geometric shape of the river section, morphology and hydraulic characteristics of its flow, and on the other hand, it brings irreparable effects to the lands adjacent to the channel. One of the main sources of sediment production is the erosion of river banks. In this regard, investigating the amount of coastal erosion is one of the management strategies. The area under study is the banks of the Jajroud River, between Letian Dam and Mamlo Dam, with a total of seven sections. In this study, for the erosion of the river bank and estimation of the amount of sediment from the method or model of estimation of the bank and foot of the bank (BSTEM) in this model, the geometrical parameters of the channel (angle of the wall and height of the bank and the distance of the toe of the bank and its angle), the height of the layers And their species, flow information and vegetation cover and other side cover materials have been extracted and used. In this research, the depth of the flow in a spiral discharge mode and the flow duration of 12 hours were used to model the bank erosion. The model models the amount of bank destruction by calculating the shear stress and soil resistance. The results of the research showed that all sections except section 6 have high erosion. The difference in erosion values in different stages was mostly due to the type of bank sediments and bank slope angle. In terms of bank stability and safety factor (FS), the most unstable bank was in section 5 and the most stable bank was in section 6 of the river.
