Abstract: This paper presents a stochastic approach to describe input uncertainties and their propagation through the nonlinear shallow-water equations. The formulation builds on a finite-volume model with a Godunov-type scheme for ...

Abstract: The transverse impact of a uniformly translating beam hitting a fixed-fixed column is investigated. Although in-air impact is considered, the study is motivated by water-driven woody debris during flood, storm surge, and ...
