RÍMAC RIVER DEFENSES - INTEGRAL SOLUTIONS (2024-2025)
Fluvial Hydraulics study for the Rímac river (in Lima).
Identifying weirs
The state of the hydraulic structures was assessed alongside the riverbank.
River roughness
The river roughness was estimated for different points of the river.

SAN IDELFONSO AND SAN CARLOS GULLIES (2024)
Further optimization strategies were proposed to the initial design of the project.
Convergent walls
Preliminar non-newtonian turbulent model was simulated to assess the effectiveness of modifying a stilling basin in a channel of covergent walls.
Bingham model
A non-newtonian Bingham model was used in the multiphase simulation.
Tunnel entrance
The flow at the tunnel entrance was simulated in detail for the design case.
