The 2021 flood event in the Dutch Meuse and tributaries from a hydraulic and morphological perspective

In July of 2021, large areas in the catchment of the Meuse River in Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany were affected by extreme rainfall and floods. This paper presents the hydraulic and morphological data that were collected during and after the flood. The data were analysed to understand the hydraulic and morphological functioning of the...

Strong free-surface turbulence in breaking bores: A physical study on the free-surface dynamics and air-water interfacial features

Highly turbulent free-surface flows are characterised by complex and rapidly varying air-water surface features, leading to enhanced surface roughness, breakup and disintegration processes. Such a strong free-surface turbulence has an impact on a number of environmental flows, and a deeper understanding of its physical nature is fundamental....
