متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Local Scour with Free Surface and Automatic Mesh Deformation
A numerical model for local scour with free surface and automatic mesh deformation is constructed and numerical simulation is carried out to compare with experimental results. The k2 model is used to simulate the turbulent flow field. Two interfaces (water and air, water and sediment) in the domain are captured with different approaches. The free surface of the flow is captured by Volume of Flu...
متن کاملThe nature of scour development and scour protection at offshore windfarm foundations.
Analysis and interpretation of monitoring data for the seabed bathymetry local to offshore windfarm foundations has shown how the scour develops in time and highlighted variations between sites with different seabed sediment characteristics, i.e. sands and clays. Results from European offshore windfarms have generated a unique dataset for comparison with previously published data. Where surfici...
متن کاملStormwater Treatment Field Demonstration and Evaluation
Pollution reduction in the Conasauga River is a high priority for Georgia due to the remaining biological diversity of the Conasauga. Home to 76 native species of fish, more than the Columbia and Colorado Rivers combined, the Conasauga serves residential, agricultural, and carpet industry needs in and around Dalton. Segments of the river are impaired due to sediment, nutrients, and fecal colifo...
متن کاملTitle Application of Improved Neuro-fuzzy Gmdh to Predict Scour Depth at Sluice Gates( Main Article ) Application of Improved Neuro-fuzzy Gmdh to Predict Scour Depth at Sluice Gates
An improved neuro-fuzzy based group method of data handling using the particle swarm optimization (NF-GMDH-PSO) is developed as an adaptive learning network to predict the localized scour downstream of a sluice gate with an apron. The input characteristic parameters affecting the scour depth are the sediment size and its gradation, apron length, sluice gate opening, and the flow conditions upst...
