Barchans Interacting With Dune‐Size Obstacles: Details of the Fluid Flow and Motion of Grains
Abstract We investigate details of the interaction of subaqueous barchans with dune‐size obstacles by carrying out numerical simulations where the fluid is solved at the grain scale and the motions of individual grains are computed at all time steps. With the outputs, we analyze the disturbances of the fluid flow, the trajectories of grains, and the ...
