چکیده

We present a statistical model of a meandering river on an alluvial plane which is motivated by the physical non-linear dynamics of the river channel migration and by describing heterogeneity of the terrain by noise. We study the dynamics analytically and numerically. The motion of the river channel is unstable and we show that by inclusion of the formation of ox-bow lakes, the system may be stabilised. We then calculate the steady state and show that it is in agreement with simulations and measurements of field data.

The present paper tries to describe the advantage and improvement of a numerical model when predicting government processes on Flow Rivers. With regard to the important effect of the flow velocity and shear stress forces on river bank erosion, we apply a Two-Dimensional numerical model, named CCHE2D, to simulate river flow pattern at a meandering river Khoshk-e-Rud River of Farsan, 30 Km west o...

A great number of towns and villages are established along the rivers and especially on the terraces made by rivers. Under the influences of the river’s dynamic and discharge changes, these lands are constantly exposed to dangers such as the flood and instability of the river bed caused by the river meandering movements. Therefore, examining the meandering pattern of the rivers is necessary in ...

Rivers have different patterns of plan forms. Straight and meandering rivers have single channel but braided, anabranching and anastomosing rivers have multi channels. Gamasiab River in Kermanshah province has different plan forms of channels. In this study, historical method is used and is investigated different plan form and river's changes with using of aerial photography of 1955, 1969, 2003...
