Effect of rigid vegetation on the velocity, turbulence, and wave structure in open channel flows

Vegetation plays an important role in changing the flow characteristics and flooding of natural channels. In this study a series of laboratory programmes were undertaken to investigate the effects of emergent and submerged vegetation on the flow structure in compound, simple and wide channels. The v...
