Abstract: A new empirical equation for free alternate bar length at the fully developed state is introduced. The equation is developed on the basis of dimensional analysis and all readily available data. A special effort is also ...

Abstract: Despite substantial research on various aspects of bed deformation in meandering streams, no systematic effort has yet been made to establish the timescales of the process. Additionally, in past experiments, as a rule, the ...

Abstract: The flow in every meandering channel with a specific sinuosity has its own convective pattern. However, most of the previous numerical works did not take this nature as an essential aspect when validating their computed ...

Abstract: Focusing on the effect of the meandering planform, two functions are investigated by a numerical experiment: the first represents the ratio between the intensities of the resisting forces acting on a meandering flow and ...

Abstract: The effect of channel sinuosity on flow pattern in meandering streams is investigated. The centerlines of the idealized meandering streams under consideration follow sine-generated curves, and the banks are rigid; the flow ...

Abstract: One of the most uncertain hydraulic designs in urban stormwater management concerns sediment control wet ponds as the event mean total suspended sediment concentration that is discharged into a receiving watercourse depends ...

Abstract: Waste stabilization ponds (WSPs) rely on natural processes to improve water quality. WSPs require less capital or operational resources than traditional treatment and are commonly used in rural communities or for secondary ...

Abstract: Waste stabilization ponds (WSPs) are a common wastewater treatment approach throughout the world. Typically, WSPs are designed with the aid of empirical equations that may not incorporate complex hydrodynamics. Whereas ...
