General Infiltration Law for Structured Soils from the Porous Media Momentum Equation and Its Simplification for Horton’s Law
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Infiltration and overland flow, as a pair of watershed process, are fundamental in hydrology. Infiltration is even more fundamental because without an accurate infiltration model, it is impossible to model overland flow ...
Hydraulic Jumps in an Inclined Rectangular Chute Contraction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Hydraulic jumps in an inclined rectangular chute contraction were studied in this paper. Theoretical equations for the sequent-area and sequent-depth ratios for hydraulic jumps in the contraction were developed considering ...
Discharge Coefficient for a Water Flow through a Bottom Orifice of a Conical Hopper
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Discharge coefficients for water flow through a vertical, circular orifice at the bottom of a conical hopper were experimentally studied in the present paper. The conical hopper consists of a cylindrical hopper of inside ...
Calibration of Businger-Arya Type of Eddy Viscosity Model's Parameters
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To solve the equation of motion for a turbulent oscillatory boundary layer, a suitable eddy viscosity model and its parameters are needed. The Businger-Arya type of eddy viscosity model, where the form of the eddy viscosity ...
Bed Forms Generated on Sandy Bottom by Oblique Standing Waves
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the results of a study of bed forms generated on a sandy bottom by an oblique standing wave resulting from obliquely incident long-crested waves on a fully reflecting vertical wall. Under antinodes of ...

Experiments on Discharge Equations of Compound Broad-Crested Weirs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A linear combination of traditional discharge equations for simple rectangular and/or triangular weirs is proposed to describe the discharge equations of compound broad-crested (CBC) weirs. The CBC weirs are composed of ...
Discussion and Closure: Application of Kalman Filter to Short-Term Tide Level Prediction
