Discussion of “Response of Velocity and Turbulence to Sudden Change of Bed Roughness in Open-Channel Flow” by Xingwei Chen and Yee-Meng Chiew
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Novel Numerical Approach for 1D Variable Density Shallow Flows over Uneven Rigid and Erodible Beds
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The numerical modeling of hyperconcentrated shallow flows is a challenging task because they exhibit special features, such as propagation over dry beds, profound bed elevation modifications owing to erosion or deposition ...
Enhancing the Efficiency of the Automatic Design of Rural Drainage Networks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The discharges flowing through rural drainage networks depend not only on the local climatic and hydrologic characteristics, but also on the geometric characteristics of the channels constituting the network. For this ...
Exact Solution of the Dam-Break Problem for Constrictions and Obstructions in Constant Width Rectangular Channels
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In hydraulic engineering, it is common to find geometric transitions where a channel is not prismatic. Among these geometric transitions, constrictions and obstructions are channel reaches in which a cross-section contraction ...
Energy Dissipation in Drop Manhole Cascades
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Drop manholes are hydraulic devices typically employed to dissipate flow energy in high slope, urban drainage systems. The use of several drops of small height placed in series (drop manhole cascade) is a more economical ...
