Blockage of culverts causes reduction in hydraulic capacity and is one of the main contributors to trigger urban flooding. However, the highly non-linear nature of debris …
In natural free surface flows, sediment particles in the surface layer of a sediment bed are moved and entrained by the fluctuating hydrodynamic forces, such as lift and drag, exerted …
Tidal bores are sudden discontinuities in water depth, and can be classified as undular and breaking bores when tidal waves propagate upstream in a river mouth and on beaches. The …
Direct measurement of forces within the rough bed layer have been limited by previous spatial-averaging shear force studies. A highly sensitive force transducer assembled with a …
The presence of floodborne objects (ie, vegetation, urban objects) during floods is considered a very critical factor because of their non-linear complex hydrodynamics and …
In natural flows, bed sediment particles are entrained and moved by the fluctuating forces, such as lift and drag, exerted by the overlying flow in the particles. To develop a better …
The development of a bore in an open channel creates a sudden change in water surface elevation propagating upstream. In this study, physical modelling was performed to …
The complex wake created by an emergent slender circular cylinder in a shallow open channel flow is studied at a cylinder Reynolds number (Re D) of 3300 and at a subcritical …
