Loss of fine particles or suffusion in soils induced by seepage is an important problem that
may cause dam or dike failures. This paper aims to study the evolution mechanisms of …

Numerical simulations were performed for morphodynamics with free water surface
fluctuation using the DEM-MPS method, which employs the discrete element method (DEM) …

The settling of cohesive sediment is ubiquitous in aquatic environments, and the study of the
settling process is important for both engineering and environmental reasons. In the settling …

We present a numerical model for the simulation of 3D sediment transport in a Newtonian
flow with free surfaces. The Navier–Stokes equations are coupled with the transport …

Layered deposits of relatively light and heavy minerals can be found in many aquatic
environments. Quantification of the physical processes which lead to the fine‐scale layering …

An analytical solution for a stationary sphere immersed in a steady and uniform laminar
open channel flow with the surrounding fluid slowly passing by is presented. The solution …

We present a numerical model for the simulation of 3D mono-dispersed sediment dynamics
in a Newtonian flow with free surfaces. The physical model is a macroscopic model for the …

Scour prediction is of vital significance in civil engineering to prevent failure of hydraulic
structures. Numerical simulations can help to describe the scour process, determine key …

Sediment transport is ubiquitous in aquatic environments, and the study of sediment
transport is important for both engineering and environmental reasons. However, the …
