Tsallis Entropy Based Velocity Distribution in Open Channel Flows
The Tsallis entropy is applied to derive both 1-D and 2-D velocity distributions in an open channel cross section. These distributions contain a parameter m through which the Tsallis entropy becomes a generalization of the Shannon entropy. Different m parameter values are examined to determine the b...
