Assessment of water depth change patterns in 120° sharp bend using numerical model
In this study, FLUENT software was employed to simulate the flow pattern and water depth changes in a 120° sharp bend at four discharge rates. To verify the numerical model, a 90° sharp bend was first modeled with a three-dimensional numerical model, and

Experimental investigation on streamlines in a 180º sharp bend
One of the most important concerns of hydraulics engineers is predicting erosion at the outer banks of rivers by studying the flow pattern along the bend. Not only are the streamlines in meanders non parallel curved lines, but they are also twisted.

The Role of Elasticity in the Vortex Formation in Polymeric Flow around a Sharp Bend
Fluid dynamic simulations using the FENE-P model of polymer physics are compared to those of an incompressible Newtonian fluid base case in order to understand the role of elasticity in the formation of vortices in a 90° bend narrow channel. The analysis

High transmission in 120-degree sharp bends of inversion-symmetric and inversion-asymmetric photonic crystal waveguides [PDF]
Bending loss is one of the serious problems for constructing nanophotonic integrated circuits. Recently, many works reported that valley photonic crystals (VPhCs) enable significantly high transmission via 120-degree sharp bends.

Asymmetry Propagation in a Pipe Flow Downstream of a 90° Sharp Elbow Bend
Pipe bends disrupt the flow, resulting in an asymmetric velocity field across the pipe diameter (D). We examined the recovery length required for the flow to return to a symmetric velocity profile downstream of a sharp elbow. The wall-resolved Large Eddy

Bent-cable Regression Applied to the Daily Maximum Temperature in Cairo Through 2021 [PDF]
We use the so-called bent-cable model to describe the daily maximum temperature in Cairo, Egypt through 2021which exhibit a potentially sharp change in slope. The model comprises two linear segments, joined smoothly by a quadratic bend. The class of bent

Effect of Bridge Piers Locations and Flow Intensity on Morphological Change in a 180-Degree River Bend [PDF]
Bridges when it crossing rivers often required multiple piers for support. One of has a limited investigation is the impact of piers on scouring and morphological aspects when a bridge crossing sharp-bend of river.
