Hydraulic Model Studies of Landslide-Generated Water Waves: Morrow Point Reservoir
A physical model study of landslide-generated water waves was conducted to determine the potential for waves overtopping Morrow Point Dam in the event of a rapid landslide into the reservoir located near Cimarron, Colo. The model landslides were designed to simulate the potential prototype landslide dynamics. This report describes the model design, construction, and testing. Dimensionless graphs and equations were developed from the model data which may be used for general cases in the prediction of wave heights for design and operational purposes. This is the first study relating slide volume and direction as well as velocity to wave height.
