The flow of water in straight open channels with prismatic complex cross-sections is
considered. Lateral distributions of depth-mean velocity and boundary shear stress are …

Experimental results are presented concerning the boundary shear stress and boundary
shear force distributions in a compound section comprising of one rectangular main channel …

An experimental and theoretical investigation into the flow characteristics of channels with
complex cross sections was undertaken. In this study, particular attention was given to the …

The paper describes some turbulence measurements carried out in the SERC Flood
Channel Facility at Hydraulics Research Ltd., Wallingford, UK The facility represents a large …

A new theoretical 1D model of compound channels flows—the exchange discharge model—
is presented. The interactions between main channel and floodplains are taken into account …

The hydrodynamic response of turbulent flow in a compound wide rectangular open channel
with a vegetated domain at the channel bank, in a channel corner and in a floodplain, to the …

Recent research has shown that conventional methods for the hydraulic design of two-stage
channels are incorrect as they fail to allow for the loss in conveyance arising from the …

Momentum exchange in the mixing region between the floodplain and the main channel is
an essential hydraulic process, particularly for the estimation of discharge. The current study …

Some experimental results are presented from the SERC Flood Channel Facility at
Hydraulics Research, Wallingford, for discharge and boundary shear stress distribution in …

The hydrodynamic response of the turbulent flow in a compound rectangular open channel
to the flood-plain depth, roughness, and symmetry, and to the channel Reynolds number is …
