Blocking probability of large wood and resulting head increase at ogee crest spillways

Large wood increases the hydraulic complexity of rivers, yet it may block and modify the flood discharge capacity of hydraulic structures such as bridges and spillways. When spillway blockage occurs, dangerous and hazardous situations have been observed at ...

Turbulent flow within a random array of rigid, emergent stems : Laboratory characterization of the drag coefficient

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Ana Margarida Da Costa Ricardo

Within the bioengineering framework, designing a non-erodible channel is a complex fluid dynamics problem as it involves knowing the drag exerted on the boundary, the drag exerted on the plant stems and the overall friction slope. Most of the existing desi ...

Energy dissipation of flows in vegetated patches with spatially varying stem densit

Anton Schleiss

To establish a compromise between ecological benefits and hydraulic flood risk, one needs a deep knowledge of fluid mechanics. In particular, and in what concerns energy loss, it is necessary to possess a good understanding of the processes that govern the ...

Validation of classical density-dependent solute transport theory for stable, high-concentration brine displacements in coarse and medium sands

David Andrew Barry

A series of careful laboratory soil column experiments was carried out for the purpose of providing data for testing recently presented theories of miscible density-dependent flow and transport. In particular, modifications to the standard theory involve e ...
