Experimental data on Stone Stability under non-uniform flow

Previous research (e.g., Jongeling et al 2003; Hofland 2005) has shown that turbulence has an important influence on stone stability and in non-uniform flow it should be modeled explicitly. The dimensionless entrainment rate should be used to describe the bed response because of its complete dependence on local hydrodynamic conditions and...

The B009 data in the backward facing step experiment

This report evaluates the B009 data of the back-ward facing step experiment which was one of a series of the experiments that were designed and conducted by Hofland and Booij (2004) and De Ruijter (2004). In this experiment, the flow field and the pressure field were measured (by PIV and pressure sensors) during the displacement of a single...
