Accelerating Dense-Water Flow down a Slope [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physical Oceanography, 2009
Abstract Where water is denser on a shallow shelf than in the adjacent deep ocean, it tends to flow down the slope from shelf to ocean. The flow can be in a steady bottom boundary layer for moderate combinations of upslope density gradient −ρx∞ and bottom slope (angle θ to horizontal):Here g is acceleration due to gravity, ρ0 is a mean ...

Rigid vegetation affects slope flow velocity

open access: yesWater
Abstract The mean slope flow velocity is critical in soil erosion models but the mechanism of its variation under rigid vegetation cover remains unclear. On natural slopes, vegetation grows predominantly perpendicular to the horizontal plane (BH), with some growing perpendicularly to the slope surface (BS); however, current research often ...

Shallow flows of generalised Newtonian fluids on an inclined plane [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We derive a general evolution equation for a shallow layer of a generalised Newtonian fluid undergoing two-dimensional gravity-driven flow on an inclined plane.

Estimating flow resistance in steep slope rills [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Recent research recognized that the slope of 18% can be used to distinguish between the ‘gentle slope’ case and that of ‘steep slope’ for the detected differences in hydraulic variables (flow depth, velocity, Reynolds number, Froude number) and those ...

Experimental study on hydraulic characteristic of submergence degree to flow under vegetation coverage

open access: yesShui kexue jinzhan, 2016
In order to explore the inherent law of slope flow structures under vegetation, we systematically researched, by testing via artificial vegetation simulation, the influence of submergence on the kinetic characteristics of slope flow in conditions where ...

Towards a better understanding of debris flow sediment sources: Monitoring of an active rock slope at Spitze Stei, Switzerland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Rapid process cascades can lead to destructive debris flows. Identifying and characterizing the processes conditioning debris-flow occurrence will strongly contribute to the mitigation of debris-flow hazards.

A study of the debris flow activity on the one-stepped channel slope

open access: yesSoil and Water Research, 2015
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the behaviour and mechanism of debris flow on various slopes through numerical simulation. The numerical simulation was performed using the Finite Difference Element Method based on the equation of mass ...

Numerical simulation of effect of outer bank slope types on the hydraulic characteristics in sharp bends

open access: yesShui kexue jinzhan, 2023
To study the effect of the outer bank slope types on the hydraulic characteristics in sharp bends, a three-dimensional hydrodynamic mathematical models was developed to simulate the flow structures under different slope types of the outer bank in the ...

Study on Erosion Process Characteristics of Frozen Soil Slope in Loess Hilly Region

open access: yesShuitu baochi yanjiu, 2022
In order to explore the differences in erosion between unfrozen slope and frozen slope under different runoff slope lengths in the Loess Hilly Region, simulated freezing and water discharge scouring tests were carried out indoors.
