• Conversion of Vertical Slot Fishways to Deep Slot Fishways to Maintain Operation during Low Flows: Implications for Hydrodynamics 

      Pena Mosquera, Luis; Puertas, Jerónimo; Bermúdez, María; Cea, Luis; Peña González, Enrique (MDPI, 2018)
      [Abstract:] Deep slot fishways (DSF) are similar to vertical slot fishways (VSF) except that a sill has been placed at the base of the slot, and thus require a lower discharge to operate. The conversion of a VSF to a DSF, ...
    • Hydraulic modeling of bridges in two-dimensional shallow water models 

      Cea, Luis; García-Alén, Gonzalo; Puertas, Jerónimo; Pena Mosquera, Luis; Vila Sánchez, Gabriela (American Society of Civil Engineers, 2022)
      [Abstract:] The backwater effect generated by bridges can significantly increase the risk of flooding. In this work we compare two different methods to include the effect of bridges in two-dimensional (2D) shallow water ...
    • Modelling Weirs in Two-Dimensional Shallow Water Models 

      García-Alén, Gonzalo; García Fonte, Olalla; Cea, Luis; Pena Mosquera, Luis; Puertas, Jerónimo (MDPI, 2021)
      [Abstract] 2D models based on the shallow water equations are widely used in river hydraulics. However, these models can present deficiencies in those cases in which their intrinsic hypotheses are not fulfilled. One of ...
