Using Smart Sensors to Track Woody Debris in Flume Experiments
, 2023 When triggered by floods, large wood travels downstream accumulating around river structures that may cause structural damage and eventually collapse. The use of sensors embedded within the woody debris has been recently employed in the study of debris ...

Laboratory experiments and numerical model of local scour around submerged sharp crested weirs
Journal of King Saud University: Engineering Sciences, 2020 The use of theoretical models, with multiphase flow (air, water, and sand), is lacking in prior research for the simulation and management of erosion around hydraulic structures. In this research, flume experiments and a Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD)

LABORATORY FLUME EXPERIMENT WITH A CODED STRUCTURED LIGHT SYSTEM [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2012 Abstract. The topography of inland deltas is influenced chiefly by the water-sediment balance in distributary channels and local evaporation and seepage rates. In a previous study, a reduced complexity model has been applied to simulate the process of inland delta formation.

A liquid metal flume for free surface magnetohydrodynamic experiments [PDF]
Review of Scientific Instruments, 2008 We present an experiment designed to study magnetohydrodynamic effects in free surface channel flow. The wide aspect ratio channel (the width to height ratio is about 15) is completely enclosed in an inert atmosphere to prevent oxidization of the liquid metal.

Gravity wave turbulence in a laboratory flume [PDF]
, 2007 We present an experimental study of the statistics of surface gravity wave turbulence in a flume of a horizontal size 12×6 m. For a wide range of amplitudes the wave energy spectrum was found to scale as Eω∼ω-ν in a frequency range of up to one decade ...

Analysis of and Reduction in Noise in Current Measurement of XCP under the Laboratory Condition
Sensors, 2022 Expendable current profiler (XCP) is one of the most vital devices detecting ocean currents. Compared with other methods, the expendable feature makes trials with XCP much faster and more hidden, while the accuracy of XCP is considerably influenced by ...
