Abstract

<p> In this study, an experimental investigation was conducted to examine the response of a river channel with a risk for failure. We used the condition of a stable channel occurrence as a criterion. We conducted experiments where the river width decreased toward the stable channel. We examined the differences in channel response within and outside the stable channel condition. We also conducted experiments when the flow rate varied from the channel-forming flow. We examined the response characteristics of the river channel. The results were compared with stable channel conditions. The results showed that the risk potential for damage to riverbanks and revetments increased in the following cases. (1) When the K value exceeds the stable channel condition due to increased flow rate, the riverbank or revetment restrains the channel's response to widening. (2) When the K value is near the boundary of the stable channel area with two rows of sandbars, the river channel transitions to the single-row sandbar area and the riverbed is degraded.</p>
