GENTLE SLOPE SEAWALLS COVERED WITH ARMOUR UNITS

Additional context for gentle-slope systems

Interpreting general purpose programming constructs can be difficult because it requires context, such as knowledge of language syntax or idioms, which users may not have readily available. In such cases other source of context may complement or substitute. This paper proposes annotating program comments with hyperlinks that the user can select to restore the complete runtime state of the progr...

Turbulent Pressure and Velocity Perturbations Induced by Gentle Hills Covered with Sparse and Dense Canopies

How the spatial perturbations of the first and second moments of the velocity and pressure fields differ for flow over a train of gentle hills covered by either sparse or dense vegetation is explored using large-eddy simulation (LES). Two simulations are investigated where the canopy is composed of uniformly arrayed rods each with a height that is comparable to the hill height. In the first sim...

exploring the relation of snow-covered days with elevation, slope and aspect in iran

introduction snow is a kind of precipitation that is formed by the condensation of moist air mass and in the condition that temperature is below freezing point. although small areas of the world are mountainous regions, these small territories play an important role in the hydrological context of river basins. in some areas snow covers and glaciers supply drinking water. monitoring and forecast...

Dependence of CO2 advection patterns on wind direction on a gentle forested slope

Gravitational flows generated on a gentle slope in stable conditions were analysed at a forested site at Vielsalm in Belgium. There were two distinct situations at the site, one corresponding to vertical convergence, characterised by a negative vertical velocity at the canopy top and horizontal velocity divergence below the canopy, the other corresponding to an equilibrium situation without any...
