The Fermi-Pasta-Ulam recurrence and related phenomena for 1D shallow-water waves in a finite basin

open access: yes, 2011
In this work, different regimes of the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) recurrence are simulated numerically for fully nonlinear "one-dimensional" potential water waves in a finite-depth flume between two vertical walls.

The role of two anatomically separate olfactory bulbs in shark food odor tracking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Most sharks have well-developed olfactory systems and depend to a large degree on odor information to locate food, home and navigate, and possibly detect predators and mates.

Physically Based New Formula for Cohesive Bed Erosion Rate [PDF]

open access: yesعلوم و مهندسی آبیاری, 2015
The currently most widely used erosion models are poorly based on physical principles and lack the ability to describe erosion of the consolidated sediment bed at increased shear stresses e.g. during a storm.

Sedimentary evolutionary processes, architecture, and sedimentary model of a lobate shallow-water delta: insights from flume simulation experiments

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
By using equipment such as time-lapse cameras and 3D laser scanners, this study conducted flume simulation experiments to obtain topographic elevation, the amount of sediment increment, sedimentary cross sections, and other related data and diagrams ...

Evaluating the Impact of Sediment Seeding Strategies in Pool‐Riffle Restoration: Experimental Insights Into Hydraulic and Spawning Habitat Performance

open access: yesWater Resources Research
Restoring streams by feeding sediment from a single location is cost‐effective, allowing natural sediment distribution. Alternatively, placing sediment in predetermined patterns requires more planning but may provide controlled improvements to flow and ...

Transverse bed slope experiments in an annular flume

open access: yes, 2015
Large scale morphology, in particular bar dimensions and bifurcation dynamics, are greatly affected by the deflection of sediment transport on transverse bed slopes due to gravity and by helical flows. However, existing transverse bed slope predictors are based on a small set of experiments with a minor range of flow conditions and sediment sizes, and ...

On the transformation of long gravity waves on a sloping beach:

open access: yesOceanologia, 2010
The transformation of long water waves arriving at a sloping beach is investigated. An approximate theory is presented for plane periodic waves propagating in water of non-uniform depth.
