Flow Equations for River Bends Derived by Tensor Calculus and Flow Acceleration in Depth-Averaged Models

Flow equations for application in river bends are derived. Coordinate transformations are achieved by tensor calculus. The momentum equations are formulated in a cylindrical coordinate system and in a cylindrical bed-following coordinate system. The depth-averaged momentum equations in a cylindrical bed-following coordinate system are derived....

A theoretical model for suspended sediment transport in river bends

A two dimensional depth-averaged model for the concentration field of suspended sediment in river bend flow is formulated. Transport of suspended sediment in horizontal and vertical directions is modelled. Convection by the main and secondary flow and turbulent diffusion are incorporated. The model is capable of computing the exchange of...
