Dam Break Wave of Thixotropic Fluid
Thixotropy is the characteristic of a fluid to form a gelled structure over time when it is not subjected to shearing, and to liquefy when agitated. Thixotropic fluids are commonly used in the construction industry e.g., liquid concrete and drilling fluids , and related applications include some forms of mud flows and debris flows. This paper describes a basic study of dam break wave with thixo...
متن کاملSimulation of the Propagation of Tsunamis in Coastal Regions by a Two-Dimensional Non-Hydrostatic Shallow Water Solver
During the last years, great effort has been addressed by several authors to simulate the propagation of solitary waves/ tsunamis, tides or surges, due to the tremendous damages and losses of human lives in the inundated rural and residential areas. Tsunamis are sea waves usually generated by undersea landslides and earthquakes. They can be regarded as long/solitary waves with small amplitude a...
متن کاملUnsteady Two-Phase Flow Measurements in Surges and Dam Break Waves
Flood waves resulting from dam breaks and flash floods have been responsible for numerous losses. In the present study, sudden flood releases were investigated down a large stepped waterway initially dry. A new experimental technique was developed to obtain instantaneous void fractions, bubble count rates and velocities. Unsteady air-water flow properties were recorded with arrays of conductivi...
متن کاملDam Break Wave with Energy Dissipation : Two Case Studies
Abstract: Flood waves resulting from dam break and spillway gate malfunction may have dramatic impacts. Two related cases are the overtopping of a dam by flood waves and a sudden water release down a stepped cascade. In each instance, some energy dissipation takes place and classical dam break theory are inappropriate. Both cases were investigated in large-size facilities and in a prototype. Ne...
متن کاملDispersive and Nonhydrostatic Pressure Effects at the Front of Surge
Undular bores and shocks generated by dam-break flows or tsunamis are examined considering nonhydrostatic pressure and dispersive effects in oneand two-horizontal-dimensional space. The fully nonlinear Boussinesq-type equations based on a weakly nonhydrostatic pressure assumption are chosen as the governing equations. The equation set is solved by a fourth-order accurate finite-volume method wi...
