Turbulence, Sediment Transport, Erosion, and Sandbar Beach Failure Processes In Grand Canyon
abstract: This research examines lateral separation zones and sand bar slope stability using two methods: a parallelized turbulence resolving model and full-scale laboratory experiments. Lateral flow separation occurs in rivers where banks exhibit strong curvature, for instance canyon rivers, sharp...
