Boundary shear stress measurements in undular flows: Application to standing wave bed forms
Waters flowing in natural streams and rivers have the ability to scour and to deposit materials, hence to change the bed topography. It is recognized that undular flows have great potential for sediment transport. In the present study, a fixed-bed model was used to investigate the spatial variations of boundary shear stress under standing waves (i.e., undular flow). The results (Figure 8) highl...
متن کاملImpulse Framework for Unsteady Flows Reveals Superdiffusive Bed Load Transport
Sediment transport is an intrinsically stochastic process, and measurement of bed load in the environment is further complicated by the unsteady nature of river flooding. Here we present a methodology for analyzing sediment tracer data with unsteady forcing. We define a dimensionless impulse by integrating the cumulative excess shear velocity for the duration of measurement, normalized by grain...
متن کاملOrigin of Hysteresis in Bed Form Response to Unsteady Flows
Field and laboratory studies indicate that changes in riverbed morphology often lag changes in water discharge. This lagged response produces hysteresis in the relationship between water discharge and bed form geometry. To understand these phenomena, we performed flume experiments to observe the response of a sand bed to step increases and decreases in water discharge. For an abrupt rise in dis...
متن کاملFluctuations of Turbulent Bed Shear Stress
With the assumption that the bed shear stress fluctuates in a lognormal fashion, the probability density function (pdf) of the standardised bed shear stress is derived as a function of the relative shear stress intensity. The pdf is more skewed with larger relative intensities, but approaches a Gaussian function when the relative intensity is small. The computed pdf agrees well with the reporte...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Bed and Structural Slopes on Bed Shear Stress and Flow Characteristics around an Impermeable Groyne
In this paper, effects of the cross shore and groyne wall slopes on flow parameters around an impermeable groyne were considered using a three-dimensional numerical CFD model (i.e., FLUENT). The k-ε turbulence model was used to evaluate the Reynolds stresses. The model was first applied to a vertical groyne on a flat bed and the model results were compared with the relevant experimental data. T...
