A model for entrainment in avalanches and debris flows based on PIV measurements of viscous gravity currents.

Christophe Ancey, Belinda Margaret Bates

A simple experiment, designed to investigate entrainment in geophysical free-surface flows such as avalanches and debris flows, was performed using a dam break of viscous fluid which travels over a rigid bed until meeting a shallow layer of the same fluid ...

Modelling of plunge pool scour evolution in non-cohesive sediments

Giovanni De Cesare, Sebastian Schwindt, Gaël Epely Chauvin

Turbulences in liquids caused by jets can be of interest for numerous applications. For one, it concerns flood spillway structures within civil engineering but also is key in any area where turbulent mixing is present. The numerical simulations of jets tha ...

Distinguishing Sitting and Standing Activities Using a Wearable Barometric Pressure Monitor

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Julien Chardonnens, Fabien Massé, Alan Kevin Bourke

Recent advancements in wearable inertial sensor technology have enabled extensive research into activity classification. However, the distinction between the sitting and standing activities using trunk-worn wearable monitoring systems remains challenging, ...

Two-phase hydrodynamic and sediment transport modeling of wave-generated sheet flow

David Andrew Barry, Roham Bakhtyar

This numerical investigation was carried out to advance mechanistic understanding of sediment transport under sheet flow conditions. An Euler-Euler coupled two-phase flow model was developed to simulate fluid-sediment oscillatory sheet flow. Since the conc ...

Application of k-epsilon turbulence models to enclosed basins: The role of internal seiches

Alfred Johny Wüest

[1] A numerical model was developed for the prediction of the density stratification of lakes and reservoirs. It combines a buoyancy-extended k-epsilon model with a seiche excitation and damping model to predict the diffusivity below the surface mixed laye ...
