Density Functions for Entrainment and Deposition Rates of Uniform Sediment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A model has been developed for the prediction of the density functions of bed-elevation and entrainment and deposition rates of sediment in sand bed streams within the lower regime flow condition. The model incorporates ...
Density Functions for Entrainment and Deposition Rates of Nonuniform Sediment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A model was developed for the prediction of the density functions of entrainment and deposition rates of nonuniform sediment. The model incorporated both statistical and deterministic parameters in its formulation. The ...
Bedload Model for Nonuniform Sediment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, a bedload model for nonuniform sediment is developed considering the density function of sediment entrainment with no active layer. The model is formulated based on physical considerations, dimensional ...
Confluence of Lock-Exchange Density Currents
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Density currents represent a broad class of flows driven by gravity acting on a density difference with the ambient environment. The understanding of the underlying mechanisms of density currents and their implications on ...
Three-Dimensional Modeling of Negatively Buoyant Flow in Diverging Channels
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Diverging channels, also known as diffusers, represent common natural and industrial outlets to lakes, reservoirs, and rivers. If the outflow in a diffuser has a larger density than the ambient water, the inflow may plunge ...
Numerical Model of Turbidity Currents with a Deforming Bottom Boundary
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A numerical model of turbidity currents with a deforming bottom boundary has been developed. The model predicts the vertical structure of the flow velocity and concentration as well as change in the bed level due to erosion ...
Numerical Study of Turbidity Currents with Sudden-Release and Sustained-Inflow Mechanisms
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A well-tested numerical model based on the Reynolds averaged Navier–Stokes equations with
Numerical Modeling of Three-Dimensional Flow Field Around Circular Piers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A three-dimensional numerical model
Experimental and Numerical Investigations of Two-Dimensional Dam-Break Flows
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents measurements of velocity profiles obtained from idealized dam-break experiments and results from numerical simulations of these experiments. Dam-break flows were generated in the laboratory by suddenly ...
