Crosato, A. (author), Rajbhandari, N. (author), Comiti, F. (author), Uijttewaal, W.S.J. (author)Wood transport in rivers, typically occurring during flood events, represents a relevant hazard for its potential to create obstruction at bridges and narrow cross-sections. Therefore, the understanding and prediction of entrainment and transport dynamics of woody material of different shapes, density and dimensions is of great interest for...conference paper 2011

Crosato, A. (author), Mosselman, E. (author), Desta, F.B. (author), Uijttewaal, W.S.J. (author)Alternate bars in straight alluvial channels are migrating or nonmigrating. The currently accepted view is that they are nonmigrating if the width-to-depth ratio is at the value of resonance or if the bars are forced by a persistent local perturbation. We carried out 2-D numerical computations and a long-duration mobile-bed flume experiment to...journal article 2011

Crosato, A. (author), Getaneh, A.A. (author), Desta, F.B. (author), Uijttewaal, W.S.J. (author), Le, U. (author)The current view is that migrating bars are the result of morphodynamic instability in straight or mildly-sinuous alluvial channels and are therefore an inevitable feature of alluvial river beds. Steady bars, instead, require some external forcing or specific morphodynamic conditions to develop. Yet, recent numerical tests showed that steady...conference paper 2010

Villada Arroyave, J.A. (author), Crosato, A. (author)The current river management policy in the Netherlands is to give rivers more space, mainly by main channel widening and floodplain lowering. The aim is to reduce flood water levels and to create more favourable conditions for river ecology. However, the effect on water levels gradually disappears due to sedimentation and vegetation growth on...journal article 2010

Samir-Saleh, M. (author), Crosato, A. (author)Flume experiments and field observations demonstrating the effects of vegetation on river planforms are reported in literature, but numerical studies of these effects at the river scale are lacking. We investigated the effects of vegetation in a 2D morphodynamic model using submodels for flow resistance and colonisation of newly formed deposits....conference paper 2010

Duran, R. (author), Beevers, L. (author), Crosato, A. (author), Wright, N. (author)Lack of data is often considered a limitation when undertaking morphological studies. This research deals with morphological studies of small rivers experiencing bank erosion processes when only limited data are available. A reach of the meandering gravel-bed river Irwell (United Kingdom) is taken as a case study in order to analyze the bank...conference paper 2010

Crosato, A. (author), Desta, F.B. (author)Alternate bars in straight alluvial channels are migrating or steady. The currently accepted view is that they are steady only if the width-to-depth ratio is at the value of resonance or if the bars are forced by a steady local perturbation. Experimental observations, however, seem to indicate that steady bars are also present in cases of...conference paper 2009

Crosato, A. (author), Mosselman, E. (author)The number of bars that form in an alluvial channel cross section can be determined from a physics-based linear model for alluvial bed topography. The classical approach defines separators between ranges in which river planform styles with certain numbers of bars are linearly stable and linearly unstable. We propose an alternative method that is...journal article 2009

Crosato, A. (author)This thesis examines the morphological changes of non-tidal meandering rivers at the spatial scale of several meanders. With this purpose, a physics-based mathematical model, MIANDRAS, has been developed for the simulation of the medium-term to long-term evolution of meandering rivers. Application to several real rivers shows that MIANDRAS can...doctoral thesis 2008

Crosato, A. (author)Meander migration models include an as yet poorly investigated source of numerical errors related to the computation of the channel curvature, which are amplified by the procedure of adding and deleting grid points as the river planform evolves. The methods adopted to reduce these errors may influence size, form, and migration rate of the...journal article 2007

Crosato, A. (author)A simple mathematical model for the simulation of river meandering processes is presented and analysed. The model is schematized as follows: computation of steady-state flow field and riverbed topography; and computation of bank erosion rate as a function of the near-bank hydraulic and morphological properties. The model is linear for the...report 1990
