Study on erosion and stability of the ecological slope

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Rainfall is the main influencing factor causing slope erosion, landslide, and instability in loess; thus, it is vital to comprehend the process of rainfall erosion on various slope surfaces and water penetration inside the slope. In this paper, the loess

An evaluation of flow-routing algorithms for calculating contributing area on regular grids [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics
Calculating contributing area (often used as a proxy for surface water discharge) within a digital elevation model (DEM) or landscape evolution model (LEM) is a fundamental operation in geomorphology.

Surface Cooling of Sloping Water Bodies with Shallow Vegetated Regions

open access: yesIAHR World Congress, 2013
1. Introduction In this work, natural convection, due to constant surface cooling, in sloping water bodies with significant vegetated shallow regions are investigated numerically. The water body consists of (a) a deep region, of length equal to 0.67m, with a horizontal bottom (b) a sloping region, of length equal to 0.67m, with a bottom slope equal to ...

Change in Transverse Slope of Water Surface at River Bend: A Numerical Study

open access: yesJournal of Engineering Science, 2021
Generation of secondary current in a meandering river flow due to the centrifugal force acting on the bend is three dimensional (3D) in nature. But in case of practical problems like alluvial geomorphic processes, 3D models are not proved to be efficient. Hence, two dimensional (2D) models are generally adopted for such problems.

Sensitivity Analysis of Anchored Slopes under Water Level Fluctuations: A Case Study of Cangjiang Bridge—Yingpan Slope in China

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
This paper presents an improved slope stability sensitivity analysis (ISSSA) model that takes anchoring factors into consideration in umbrella-anchored sand and clay slopes under reservoir water level fluctuation. The results of the ISSSA model show that

Shallow Water Turbulent Surface Wave Striking an Adverse Slope [PDF]

open access: yesActa Geophysica, 2015
The problem of a sinusoidal wave crest striking an adverse slope due to gradual elevation of the bed is relevant for coastal sea waves. Turbulence based RANS equations are used here under turbulence closure assumptions. Depth-averaging the equations of continuity and momentum, yield two differential equations for the surface elevation and the average ...
