Size Ratio of Fluvial Grains’ Intermediate Axes Assessed by Image Processing and Square-Hole Sieving
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The comparability of grain sizes emerging from different methods are discussed, including image-based grain-size analysis. Waterworked gravel-bed surfaces from laboratory and field experiments are analyzed in detail. Grain ...
Flow Patterns and Turbulence Structures in a Scour Hole Downstream of a Submerged Weir
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Scouring downstream of submerged weirs is a common problem resulting from the interaction of the three-dimensional turbulent flow field around the structures and the mobile channel bed. This paper presents the distributions ...
Live-Bed Scour at Submerged Weirs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Weirs or bed sills are low-head hydraulic structures used for bed stabilization, raising upstream water level, and reducing flow velocity. During high-flow events, the weir is fully submerged in the river and scouring ...
Moving-Window Detrending for Grain-Roughness Parameterization
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Detrending is required to enable robust parameterization of surface roughness by removing large topographic trends from fluvial data. A range of detrending methods exist in the literature; however, there is limited ...
Ambient Entrainment Mechanisms of Partially Unconfined Turbidity Currents Interacting with a Continuous Rigid Obstacle
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In this study, the entrainment mechanisms of unconfined turbidity currents that interact with a linear rectangular obstacle will be investigated and compared with confined studies. Laboratory experiments will be performed ...
Moving-Window Detrending for Grain-Roughness Parameterization
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Detrending is required to enable robust parameterization of surface roughness by removing large topographic trends from fluvial data. A range of detrending methods exist in the literature; however, there is limited ...
Flow Measurement Using Flying ADV Probes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An innovative measurement system of “flying” acoustic Doppler velocimeters was designed in order to allow rapid velocity measurement over a large flow field. Such measurements are necessary, for example, when measuring ...
