Experimental research on the impact pressure of tidal bore fronts [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Tidal bore impact can be strong and destructive, placing estuarine infrastructures under great threat. However, there is a lack of research focusing on accurately estimating the impact pressure exerted by tidal bores. Herein new experiments were conducted to investigate the pressure of tidal bore fronts in a glass flume.

Tidal bore dynamics in funnel‐shaped estuaries [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2015
AbstractThe formation and dynamics of tidal bores in funnel‐shaped estuaries is investigated from both a global tidal wave scaling analysis and new quantitative field observations. We show that tidal bore occurrence in convergent estuaries can be estimated from a dimensionless scaling parameter characterizing the relative intensity of nonlinear ...

Minimal model for tidal bore revisited [PDF]

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2019
This develops a recent analysis of gentle undular tidal bores (2018 New J. Phys. 20 053066) and corrects an error. The simplest linear-wave superposition, of monochromatic waves propagating according to the shallow-water dispersion relation, leads to a ...

Tidal bore progressing on a small slope [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental Thermal and Fluid Science, 2017
In a natural estuary, a tidal bore may progress on a small sloping bed from the downstream to the upstream. In this study, a simple analytical solution for tidal bore formed in a small slope channel was developed using the finite control volume analysis. New unsteady experiments were conducted to verify the theoretical model.

Modeling analysis of tidal bore formation in convergent estuaries [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Mechanics, B/Fluids, 2019
Despite the recognized impact of tidal bores on estuarine ecosystems, the large scale mechanism of bore formation in convergent alluvial estuaries is still under investigation. So far, field data exist only for a small number of estuaries, while numerical simulations employ the shallow water equations mainly focusing on the small-scale and local ...

Numerical simulation on the effect of Typhoon In-Fa on the Qiantang tidal bore

open access: yesShuili Shuiyun Gongcheng Xuebao, 2021
Typhoon In-fa, making landfall in Zhoushan on July 25, 2021, which coincided with the astronomical spring tide, had an effect on the Qiantang tidal bore.

Tidal Bore Scour around a Spur Dike

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Tidal bores are a natural phenomenon with high flow velocity and destructive potential. A spur dike is a widely used river regulation and embankment protection structure that minimizes erosion, promotes deposition, and protects riverbanks.

A Numerical Simulation of a Tidal Bore Flow [PDF]

open access: yesCoastal Engineering Journal, 2010
A numerical model was developed based on the Cubic-Interpolated Pseudo-particle (CIP) Combined Unified Procedure (CIP-CUP or C-CUP) method equipped with a Large Eddy Simulation (LES) model and a re-initialization method. The model was validated and applied to the tidal bore flow with a weak breaking front.

Numerical simulation of tidal bore based on CFD method

open access: yesShuili Shuiyun Gongcheng Xuebao, 2019
The tidal bore is a kind of nonlinear strong discontinuous flow that has great impact on wading structures. The small-scale fine simulation of the tidal bore is the premise for analyzing the structural stability of the wading structures under tidal ...
