Abstract: In this study, errors in determining bed shear stress caused by errors in theoretical bed surface data or roughness size selection using one-point velocity, two-point velocity, or a group of velocity measurements within ...

Abstract: This paper presents an investigation of the performance of the hydraulic and sediment removal of a flushing system in a detention basin. A hydraulic criterion for the design of the flushing system is proposed. An equation ...

Abstract: A nonintrusive method, based on the planar laser imagery technique, was developed to capture images of droplets dispersed in turbulent flow without disturbing the flow field. The methodology and technique of capturing the ...

Abstract: This paper deals with the underlying mechanism of flow resistance in an alluvial channel: The effects of sidewall and bed form on flow resistance, Einstein’s divided hydraulic radius approach and Engelund’s energy slope ...

Abstract: An algorithm for simulating tropical rainfall using an event-based method has been developed. The simulation process uses a one-step Markov chain model. The driving mechanism of the model is based on the statistics derived ...

Abstract: Based on the field experiments conducted on a slope consisting of cow grass (Axonopus Compressus), the study presents the frictional resistance of overland flow on the turfed slope. The rigid stems associted with cow grass ...

Abstract: A bayed beach in equilibrium could be in a state of either dynamic or static equilibrium; the latter being a special case of the former when the absolute quantity of longshore transport is nil. As a bay approaches its ...

Abstract: An investigation on the influence of temperature (21.6–39.6°C) on the reaeration rate was performed. The recipient still water body was homogeneous and unstratified. The findings of the experimental study showed that the ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the mechanism of the dip phenomenon whereby the location of the maximum velocity appears below the free surface vis-à-vis the secondary currents in open-channel flows. It is found that the classical ...
