3D Direct Numerical Simulation on the Emergence and Development of Aeolian Sand Ripples
A sand surface subjected to a continuous wind field exhibits a regular ripple surface. These aeolian sand ripples emerge and develop under the coupling effect between the wind field, bed surface topology, and sand particle transportation. Lots of theoretical and numerical models have been establishe...
