Abstract: A vertical two-dimensional numerical model is employed to study the scour beneath a vibrating pipe exposed to steady currents. The ability of the model is first validated against previous scour experiments concerning both ...

Abstract: Severe soil erosion in the Loess Plateau region and associated large sediment discharge downstream in China have been of great concern for years. A physically based distributed model, the Digital Yellow River model (DYRIM), ...

Abstract: This paper addresses a knowledge-based approach for reservoir system optimization. The approach takes a more detailed consideration of each turbine in a hydropower plant than the traditional constant output coefficient ...

Abstract: Anomalous poleward transport of atmospheric energy can lead to sea ice loss during boreal winter over the Arctic, especially in the North Barents–Kara Seas (NBKS), by strengthening downward longwave radiation (DLW). However, ...
