Flow and Scour around Idealized Porous Engineered Log Jam Structures
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Engineered log jams (ELJs) are used widely in practice as a river restoration measure. One desired feature of an ELJ is its porous nature, which plays an important role in hydrodynamics and sediment response. Currently ...
Computational Fluid Dynamics–Based Evaluation and Verification of FISP Suspended Sediment Samplers
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Suspended sediment concentration is critical for many aspects of water resources management, such as sedimentation prevention in irrigation channels. Samplers from the Federal Interagency Sedimentation Project (FISP) are ...
Physically Based Sand Slide Method in Scour Models Based on Slope-Limited Diffusion
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In scour simulation models, a sand slide step is necessary to treat the bed areas where the slope exceeds the angle of repose. This exceedance is due to the fact that the Exner equation does not take into consideration the ...
