Simulating river flow velocity on global scale [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Geosciences, 2005
Flow velocity in rivers has a major impact on residence time of water and thus on high and low water as well as on water quality. For global scale hydrological modeling only very limited information is available for simulating flow velocity. Based on the

Cavitation–Silt Erosion Behavior and Failure Mechanism of an HVOF-Sprayed WC-Cr3C2-Ni Coating for Offshore Hydraulic Machinery

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
WC-Cr3C2-Ni coatings are a vital class of hard ceramic/cermet coatings with potential applications as wear-resistant materials. However, their erosion wear behavior in 3.5 wt.% sodium chloride medium (SCM) remains largely unexplored.

Flow velocities of Alaskan glaciers [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2013
Our poor understanding of tidewater glacier dynamics remains the primary source of uncertainty in sea level rise projections. On the ice sheets, mass lost from tidewater calving exceeds the amount lost from surface melting. In Alaska, the magnitude of calving mass loss remains unconstrained, yet immense calving losses have been observed.

Effects of Flow Velocity on the Growth and Survival of Haliotis discus hannai Larvae in the Recirculating Upflow System From the Point of Energy Metabolism

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
For the abalone Haliotis discus hannai, attachment and metamorphosis are crucial stages in the transition from planktonic to benthic life. Increasing the larval metamorphosis rate by artificially controlling the external environment and simulating ...

Determining Tipping Points and Responses of Macroinvertebrate Traits to Abiotic Factors in Support of River Management

open access: yesBiology, 2023
Although the trait concept is increasingly used in research, quantitative relations that can support in determining ecological tipping points and serve as a basis for environmental standards are lacking.

Modeling Bed Shear Stress Distribution in Rectangular Channels Using the Entropic Parameter

open access: yesEntropy, 2020
The evaluation of bed shear stress distribution is fundamental to predicting the transport of sediments and pollutants in rivers and to designing successful stable open channels. Such distribution cannot be determined easily as it depends on the velocity

River Sediment Transport Modeling of Ele River using Computational Fluid Dynamics Model of COMSOL Multiphysics Program

open access: yesASM Science Journal, 2021
Excessive sediment deposition results to hydro-ecological problems particularly for shallow streams that experience significant point-source pollution. In recent times, models have been employed to investigate sediment transport in river systems. The aim

Velocity inversion in nanochannel flow [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2007
The nanoscale cylindrical Couette flow is investigated by means of molecular dynamics simulations, in the case where the inner cylinder is rotating whereas the outer cylinder is at rest. We find that the tangential velocity of the low is inverted when the fluid-wall interaction near the outer cylinder is weak and the fluid density is low.

Influence factors of pressure loss in pipeline transportation of paste slurry

open access: yes工程科学学报, 2015
A new pipe loop test platform was built to study the influence factors and levels of pressure loss in slurry pipe transportation. The influences of pipe inner-diameter, flow velocity, slurry concentration and particle size on the pressure loss were ...
