Scour around bridge foundations is regarded as one of the predominant causes of bridge
failures. Traditional methods primarily employ underwater instruments to detect bridge scour …

Laboratory experiments have yielded evidence suggestive of large-scale meandering
motions in the wake of an axial flow hydrokinetic turbine in a turbulent open channel flow …

Highlights Eleven general streambank stabilization (SBS) techniques have been used
worldwide. Rules-of-thumb and practitioner experience are still heavily applied in SBS …

A large‐eddy simulation framework, dubbed as the Virtual Wind Simulator (VWiS), for
simulating turbulent flow over wind turbines and wind farms in complex terrain is developed …

We develop a coupled hydro-morphodynamic numerical model for carrying out large-eddy
simulation of stratified, turbulent flow over a mobile sand bed. The method is based on the …

Streambank retreat can be a significant contributor to total sediment and nutrient loading to
streams. Process-based bank stability models, such as the Bank Stability and Toe Erosion …

The method of large-eddy simulation (LES) is used increasingly to address research and
engineering problems of modern hydraulics. LES simulates directly the large-scale motion of …

We conduct large-eddy simulation (LES) to investigate the turbulent flow in a 3.2 km long
reach of the Mississippi River. The digital elevation model of the study reach was …

Shear stresses on vegetated beds play an important role in driving a wide range of
processes at the sediment‐water interface, including sediment transport. Existing methods …

Barchan dunes are crescent-shaped formations of sand that can dominate both desert and
subaqueous landscapes when the supply of sand is scarce. Because of the complexity and …
