Break Up

The break-up process on the North Saskatchewan and Pembina Rivers in north central Alberta during 1969 is discussed.It is shown that the maximum size of moving ice can approach the river's width and have a length of four or five times this depending upon channel geometry. A case of radial cracking of an ice sheet at a bridge pier when the sheet was subject to the drag force of high velocity river flow is reported. The rate of progress of a break-up wave on the Pembina River was found to have been approximately that of a free surface water wave of the same height.

Earthquake or rainfall can arouse landslide, which will cause debris flow. Free surface water waves generated by plunging of debris flow cause devastating damage on human life. In this study, a numerical scheme for debris flow and free surface water wave was developed based on shallow water approximation, in which the interaction between these two flows was included newly. Generation of waves by plunging of debris flow is highly non-linear phenomena. Original CIP method and first order up-wind scheme mixed with second order central derivative scheme were adopted to simulate collision of two initially separated fluids (debris flow and still water). Six cases have been adopted to simulate the generation, propagation and run-up of water waves generated by debris flow. The time series of these two flows for these six calculating cases show the interaction of these two flows. Numerical results for interaction of debris flow and generated water wave are quite satisfactory and reasonable.

AbstractWe are concerned here with an analysis of the nonlinear irrotational gravity water wave problem with a free surface over a water flow bounded below by a flat bed. We employ a new formulation involving an expression (called flow force) which contains pressure terms, thus having the potential to handle intricate surface dynamic boundary conditions. The proposed formulation neither requires the graph assumption of the free surface nor does require the absence of stagnation points. By way of this alternative approach we prove the existence of a local curve of solutions to the water wave problem with fixed flow force and more relaxed assumptions.

Abstract. Surface-piercing propellers have been widely used in light and high-speed vessels because of their superior performance. Experimental study of these propellers is one of the most reliable and accurate ways which can provide details about the performance and effect of different design parameters on the performance of the surface-piercing propellers. In this research, a five-blade surface-piercing propeller was tested in the free surface water tunnel of Babol Noshirvani University of Technology in order to expand the available experimental data and database for future engineering designs. The effects of immersion ratio and shaft inclination angle on the propeller's efficiency and hydrodynamic coefficients were examined. A free surface water tunnel and a calibrated dynamometer with the measurability of the thrust forces and the torque of a propeller were used for this purpose. Comparing the obtained results with the existing semi-experimental equations shows that the equations presented in various geometric conditions are not accurate enough, and developing the existing database is necessary. The details of the obtained results showed that the hydrodynamic coefficients of the thrust and torque increased by increasing the immersion ratio, but the coefficient of hydrodynamic thrust and efficiency reduced. The results also indicated that the coefficient of torque increased by increasing the shaft inclination angle. The highest efficiency of the propeller was achieved in the range of 40 %–50 % immersion ratios at all angles of shaft inclination. For all immersion ratios, the maximum and minimum efficiencies were obtained at 0 and 15 shaft inclination angles, respectively. The best efficiency of the propeller was at 50 % immersion ratio and zero shaft inclination angle.
