Study of Side Wall Deformation in Irrigation Channels

Abstract

The article analyzes existing methods and approaches to hydraulic calculation of the process of deformation of lateral slopes of irrigation canals with a soil channel. Also, using the example of the Amu-Bukhara and Karshi main canals with a connected soil channel, cases of bank deformation and transverse velocity distribution are presented. Our observations have shown that existing methods do not fully take into account the uneven distribution of test stress values due to the uneven distribution of flow velocities on the surface of the live section.
