Analysis of Debris Wave Development with One-Dimensional Shallow-Water Equations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The objective of this contribution is to analyze the formation of debris waves in natural channels. Numerical simulations are carried out with a 1D code, based on shallow-water equations and on the weighted averaged flux ...
Experimental Analysis and Numerical Simulations of Waves and Current Flows Around Low-Crested Rubble-Mound Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The objective of this paper is to analyze flow patterns and velocity fields around rubble-mound low-crested structures based on wave basin experiments and 2DH numerical simulations. Experiments were performed in the
Dam-Break Waves in Power-Law Channel Section
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The aim of this work is to highlight the effects of cross-sectional shape on dam-break wave propagation along channels by the solution of 1D conservative equations assuming a power-law variation of the channel width. An ...
Influence of Relative Roughness and Reynolds Number on the Roll-Waves Spatial Evolution
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The paper investigates the influence of the resistance coefficient variability onto the spatial development of roll-waves. Two models, based on time-asymptotic solutions of the linearized St. Venant equations, subject to ...
