Influence of Vertical Resolution and Nonequilibrium Model on Three-Dimensional Calculations of Flow and Sediment Transport
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This note, using a three-dimensional model of river flow and sediment transport, examines the effect of the vertical resolution and the choice a nonequilibrium adaptation length
Impact of Particle Shape on Saltating Mode of Bedload Transport Sheared by Turbulent Flow
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The saltating mode of sediment transport is the dominant mechanism of bedload transport in a fluvial stream, especially in mountainous rivers. In most simulation studies, the actual shapes of sediment particles are simplified ...
Influence of Bioroughness Density on Turbulence Characteristics in Open-Channel Flows
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Bioroughness plays an important role in modifying the velocity and sediment flux near the riverbed. It is therefore pertinent to study the influence of benthic fauna on the bed forms. To this end, large-eddy simulations ...
