Particle-Resolving Simulations of Dune Migration: Novel Algorithms and Physical Insights

Sediment transport is ubiquitous in aquatic environments, and the study of sediment transport is important for both engineering and environmental reasons. However, the understanding and prediction of sediment transport are hindered by its complex dynamics and regimes. In this dissertation, the open-...
