Abstract: Riverbank erosion involves engineering and environmental concerns. Among several dominant mechanisms of riverbank erosion, navigation effects caused by the passage of vessels are quite important. Field data indicate that ...

Abstract: A hybrid modeling method for predicting waterway sedimentation was developed and applied to the Columbia River estuary. The method uses physical hydraulic models, two dimensional (2‐D) numerical models, and analytical ...

Abstract: The Columbia Hybrid Modeling System was applied to navigation channel shoaling problems at the mouth of the Columbia River estuary. The models were verified to satisfactorily reproduce observed prototype behavior. The ...

Abstract: Typical engineering applications involving cohesive sediments in tidal water bodies including bays, estuarial navigation channels, small harbor basins, piers, and wharves have been cited. Reference has been made to problems ...
