Modeling Flow Pattern and Evolution of Meandering Channels with a Nonlinear Model

Modeling Flow Pattern and Evolution of Meandering Channels with a Nonlinear Model

Meander dynamics has been the focus of river engineering for decades; however, it remains a challenge for researchers to precisely replicate natural evolution processes of meandering channels with numerical models due to the high nonlinearity of the governing equations. The present study puts forwar...
