Riffle-pool sequences are fundamental, ubiquitous morphological features of alluvial rivers that thoroughly studied in general and commonly incorporated into river restoration projects. Most previous investigations on the effect riffle-pool hyporheic exchanges focused solely bed undulation, because is widely thought to be defining feature sequences. However, riffle- pool also have significant w...

Abstract Sediment transport plays an important role in the overall process of navigation along rivers, as it shapes fairway continuously. This paper aims to present partial results obtained PhD research regarding measures be used order help stabilize channel bed. The have been proposed and tested based on a calibrated validated 2-dimensional hydrodynamic sediment model. show influence river com...

A result of the increased usage of advanced high strength steels (AHSS) for stamped automotive body structures is an increase in press forces and tool wear, as well as component geometrical issues, such as springback and curl. This study investigates a methodology of forming a dual-phase steel component in a ‘softened’, or annealed, condition, then subsequently heat-treating and quenching the c...
