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

Riparian shrubs and trees present a complex, seasonally variable morphology, with flexible
stems and leaves efficiently adapting to the flow forcing (reconfiguration). The aim of this …

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 …

Confluences are common components of river networks and are characterized by a highly
complex flow structure. Two confluence geometries, without and with the floodplain in the …

In this study, theoretical and experimental methods are applied to investigate streamwise
velocity profiles and transverse momentum exchange in the quasi-equilibrium region in …

This laboratory study aims at investigating the longitudinal development of a mixing layer in
a compound open-channel (two-stage geometry with a main channel and adjacent …

A field investigation was carried out in March 2019 at the large river confluence between the
Yangtze River and the outflow channel with a large inner-side floodplain of Poyang Lake …

Vegetation occurring along river margins deeply alters the hydrodynamic flow structure,
inducing a characteristic shear layer profile and triggering the onset of large scale vortices …

Flow experiments are conducted in a two-stage compound open-channel, with varying
intensity of the velocity difference between the main channel (deep part) and the floodplain …
