Hydraulics of braided river dynamics. Insights from flume experiments
E3S Web of Conferences, 2018 We focus on the measurement of the topography and bathymetry in flume-models of braided rivers. To this aim, an innovative measurement system is adopted. It consists of a laser-ultrasonic sensor and can survey the bed elevation under flowing water.

Variations in roughness predictions (flume experiments) [PDF]
, 2005 Data of flume experiments with bed forms are used to analyze and compare different roughness predictors. In this study, the hydraulic roughness consists of grain roughness and form roughness. We predict the grain roughness by means of the size of the sediment.

Transverse bed slope experiments in an annular flume [PDF]
, 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 ...

Shipboard measurements of sediment stability using a small annular flume—Core Mini Flume (CMF) [PDF]
, 2013 Estimates of bed stability in coastal environments are essential to physical, biological, and chemical investigations of cohesive sediments. The Core Mini Flume (CMF), a 200 mm diameter annular flume has been designed to undertake sediment stability ...

The circular wind wave facilities at the University of Heidelberg [PDF]
, 1995 At the University of Heidelberg circular wind/wave flumes are used to study small-scale air sea interaction processes under a wide range of conditions. The outer diameter of the large flume is 4m and the channel width is 30 cm.

Morphology and velocity of the EUROTANK flume tank experiments
, 2023 Flume tank experiments at Utrecht University in the EUROTANK show under which conditions a contourite system can form. This contourite system consisted of an elongated depression (moat) and an associated sediment accumulation (drift).

Threshold of motion and orientation of bivalve shells under current flow [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Geology, 2023 Disarticulated shells of three bivalve mollusk species (Anomalocardia brasiliana, Codakia orbicularis, and Divaricella quadrisulcata) were experimentally tested in laboratory flumes to determine the threshold of motion and final orientation of the valves.
