Every year flood events lead to thousands of casualties and significant economic damage.
Mapping the areas at risk of flooding is critical to reducing these losses, yet until the last few …

The mixing of cooling fluid in rod bundles from one subchannel to another through the gaps
between the rods reduces the temperature differences in the coolant as well as along the …

Results are presented from an experimental study of shallow flow in a channel partially
obstructed by an array of circular cylinders. The cylinder array is a model for emergent …

This paper presents a method for predicting the distributions of velocity and shear stress in
shallow channels with a boundary of emergent vegetation. Experiments in a laboratory …

Natural riparian vegetation generally presents a complex hydrodynamic behavior governed
by plant morphology and flexibility. By contrast, hydrodynamic processes in partly vegetated …

Mixing interfaces at confluences have been viewed as analogous to shallow mixing layers in
which lateral fluxes of momentum generally are viewed as unimportant. This investigation …

Natural earth-bounded channel flows usually subject to various sidewall turbulences, ie in
the form of secondary currents, due to non-constant channel shapes at different sections …

The structure of free-surface flows in a straight compound channel was investigated in a
laboratory flume, consisting of a central smooth-bed main channel (MC) and two adjacent …

A modified expression to predict the boundary shear distribution in compound channels is
derived and is found to provide significant improved results. The practical method to predict …

Practical Channel Hydraulics is a technical guide for estimating flood water levels in rivers
using the innovative software known as the Conveyance and Afflux Estimation System (CES …
