River Bend

Scouring occurs along the streams and generally increases in their bend areas. This occurence threaten the stability of buildings and facilities built around those areas. This study was conducted by experimental model tests in a laboratory using an artificial channel made of sand with diameter of 0,47 mm and the sand layer density of 1,47 gr/cm3. To assess the effect of river bends on the extent of scours, the water flow was simulated on the artificial channel in 9 times i.e.; 3 variations in the angle of river bends (α) and 3 variations in the flow discharge (Q) for each river bend variation. This study revealed that the volume of scours positively correlated to the angle of river bends. The volume of scours decreased more 20% when the angle of river bends decresed from 60º to 30º. The increase of the flow discharge also enlarged the volume of scours more than 100% at the river bends with small angles

River Bend

River bends are one of the common elements in most natural rivers, and secondary flow is one of the most important flow features in the bends. The secondary flow is perpendicular to the main flow and has a helical path moving towards the outer bank at the upper part of the river cross-section, and towards the inner bank at the lower part of the river cross-section. The secondary flow causes a redistribution in the main flow. Accordingly, this redistribution and sediment transport by the secondary flow may lead to the formation of a typical pattern of river bend profile. It is important to study and understand the flow pattern in order to predict the profile and the position of the bend in the river. However, there are a lack of comprehensive reviews on the advances in numerical modeling of bend secondary flow in the literature. Therefore, this study comprehensively reviews the fundamentals of secondary flow, the governing equations and boundary conditions for numerical simulations, and previous numerical studies on river bend flows. Most importantly, it reviews various numerical simulation strategies and performance of various turbulence models in simulating the flow in river bends and concludes that the main problem is finding the appropriate model for each case of turbulent flow. The present review summarizes the recent advances in numerical modeling of secondary flow and points out the key challenges, which can provide useful information for future studies.

The Stability

A model has been formulated to determine the stability regimes for water flow in a Subglacial conduit draining from a reservoir. The physics of the water flow is described with a set of differential equations expressing conservation of mass, momentum and energy. Non-steady flow of water in the conduit is considered, the conduit being simultaneously enlarged by frictional heating and compressed by plastic deformation in response to the pressure difference across the tunnel wall. With the aid of simplifying assumptions, a mathematical model has been constructed from two time-dependent, non-linear, ordinary differential equations, which describe the time evolution of the conduit cross-sectional area and the water depth in the reservoir. The model has been used to study the influence of conduit area and reservoir levels on the stability of the water flow for various glacier and ice-sheet configurations. The region of the parameter space where the system can achieve equilibrium has been identified. However, in the majority of cases the equilibrium is unstable, and an initial perturbation from equilibrium may lead to a catastrophic outburst of water which empties the reservoir.

Density Evaluation

Understanding and modeling the downstream dilution process of a landslide triggered debris flow is the foundation for recognizing the boundary condition and dilution mechanism of this type of debris flow, and this serves as the theoretical basis for the categorized control of viscous debris flows, diluted debris flows, hyperconcentration flows and flash floods in a drainage basin. In this study, taking as an example a typical debris flow that occurred in the Guanba River on Tibet’s southeastern plateau on July 6th, 1998, empirical models are used to calculate the density, water flow discharge, debris flow discharge, average depth of loose materials and channel gradient at 11 cross-sections upstream to downstream in the debris flow. On this basis, the dilution characteristics and debris flow dilution process are analyzed in this study. According to the correlation between the debris flow density and the water-soil ratio and channel gradient, we have established the density evaluation model for the debris flow dilution process, which can predict the dilution process of a landslide triggered debris flow. The study results include the following four aspects: (1) The key factors in the dilution process of landslide triggered debris flows are the water flow discharge, average depth of loose materials and channel gradient. (2) The debris flow dilution characteristics in the Guanba River in 1998 include the occurrence of the debris flow dilution process after a significant increase in the water-soil ratio; an increase in the proportion of fine particles after dilution of the debris flow; and the size distribution of grain is “narrowed.” (3) In accordance with the density and dilution characteristics, the debris flow dilution process in the Guanba River can be divided into the upstream viscous debris flow section, midstream and downstream transitional debris flow section and downstream diluted debris flow section. (4) The density evaluation model for the debris flow dilution process is expressed by the Lorentz equation, and this model can reflect the debris flow dilution process such that the debris flow density will decrease gradually with an increase in the water-soil ratio and decrease in channel gradient. The density evaluation model for the debris flow dilution process has been verified by three debris flow cases, which include Gaoqiao Gully, Haizi Valley, and Aizi Valley

The Stability

The response of the shallow portion of the ground (vadose zone) and of earth structures is affected by the interaction with the atmosphere. Rainwater infiltration and evapotranspiration affect the stability of man-made and natural slopes and cause shallow foundations and embankments to settle and heave. Very frequently, the ground surface is covered by vegetation and, as a result, transpiration plays a major role in ground-atmosphere interaction. The soil, the plant, and the atmosphere form a continuous hydraulic system, which is referred to as Soil-Plant-Atmosphere Continuum (SPAC). The SPAC actually represents the ‘boundary condition’ of the geotechnical water flow problem. Water flow in soil and plant takes place because of gradients in hydraulic head triggered by the negative water pressure (water tension) generated in the leaf stomata. To study the response of the SPAC, (negative) water pressure needs to be measured not only in the soil but also in the plant. The paper presents a novel technique to measure the xylem water pressure based on the use of the High-Capacity Tensiometer (HCT), which is benchmarked against conventional techniques for xylem water pressure measurements, i.e. the Pressure Chamber (PC) and the Thermocouple Psychrometer (TP).

The Stability

A series of model tests of a caisson in wet towing were conducted in a towing tank to assess the stability and effective power requirement in calm water and head sea conditions. The scale ratio of the model was 1/30, and the model-length-based Froude number in the tests ranged from 0.061 to 0.122, which is equivalent to 2 and 4 knots in the full scale, respectively. During the towing of the model, tension on the towline and six-degrees-of-freedom (6DOF) motion of the model were measured. Under the calm water condition, the effects of towing speed, draft, and initial trim variation on the towing stability and effective power were investigated. Initial trim improved stability and reduced required towing power. In head seas, effective power and towing stability were changed with the wavelength. It increased as the wavelength became longer, but the added resistance in long waves also stabilized the model with reduced yaw motion.

The Stability

SummaryMeasured stability characteristics in a radial wall jet were compared with calculated results for a two-dimensional wall jet. It was found that the stability of the radial wall jet is similar in many respects to that of the two-dimensional wall jet. An exception is that the local amplification rate of the disturbance velocity is much higher than in the two-dimensional case. It was also found that quarter-harmonics appear in the non-linear region, as well as half-harmonics, and that their amplitude distributions show profiles similar to that of the fundamental component. Further, vortex patterns were visualised in water flow, and results corresponding to measurements in air flow and to the linear stability calculation were obtained.
