Abstract: The theory of hydrodynamic phenomenon of the axisymmetric circular far-wake flow behind a sphere is revisited in this study by the generalized similarity solution of the governing momentum equations to obtain the solutions ...

Abstract: A new theoretical approach is presented for the derivation of free surface profiles of two-dimensional steady and unsteady flows by solving the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations applied to the turbulent flow regime. ...

Abstract: This study examines the probability for sediment entrainment to bed load and the probability for the threshold condition of sediment to be in suspension. The theoretical analysis is based on a simple one-sided exponential ...

Abstract: Gravity waves propagating over free-surface flows with shallow depth are well-known phenomena. The small-amplitude sinusoidal wave and Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equations are based on potential-flow theory being widely used ...

Abstract: A theory of turbulent shear flow over a sand bed is developed, addressing the instability principle of the fluid-granular bed interface leading to the formation of ripples. The Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations ...

Abstract: The theory of hydrodynamic phenomenon of the axisymmetric circular far-wake flow behind a sphere is revisited in this study by the generalized similarity solution of the governing momentum equations to obtain the solutions ...

Abstract: We study here a model hybrid system consisting of a flexible rectangular space structure such as a solar cell array, hoisted at one end by a movable rigid hub, set to vibration from certain initial conditions, but subject ...

Abstract: An undular hydraulic jump on a smooth boundary occurs when the approaching flow Froude number marginally exceeds its critical value of unity. The free surface profiles of undular hydraulic jumps are studied theoretically ...

Abstract: The three-dimensional quasi-steady vortex flow field around circular piers in a quasi-equilibrium scour hole under a clear water regime has been investigated experimentally. The main characteristic features of the flow, ...

Abstract: The time-averaged characteristics of turbulent wall-wake flows downstream of a sphere placed on a rough wall are studied. The profiles of the defect of streamwise velocity, Reynolds shear stress, and turbulence intensities ...
