Wind-Wave Interaction in Sengguruh Reservoir and the Effect to Riprap Material

The Sengguruh Dam is one of the large dams managed by Jasa Tirta I Public Company. This reservoir has been operating for more than 38 years (operating since 1982 and the latest data is for 2020). This research was conducted to determine the effect of wind and the interaction of wind on the water in the Sengguruh Dam. Most of the interaction of water and wind is mostly carried out on coastal structures but rarely investigated in the upstream area of the river basin. Investigations were carried out to obtain an overview and characteristics of the influence of the two variables of wind and water on the hydraulics of the reservoir storage, sedimentation in the water column, and side effects of the embankment material in the riprap dam. This study will provide an overview of the condition of the Sengguruh Dam which is full of sediment and shows the wind and water interaction that occurs in the reservoir as well as the potential hazards that are quite large for the management of water resources and disasters in the surrounding community if there is a high risk or threat that occurs if these conditions do not meet dam safety standards in Indonesia.
