Van Prooijen, B.C. (author), Uijttewaal, W.S.J. (author)The development of large coherent structures in a shallow mixing layer is analyzed. The results are validated with experimental data obtained from particle tracking velocimetry. The mean flow field is modeled using the self-similarity of the velocity profiles. The characteristic features of the down-stream development of a shallow mixing layer...journal article 2002

Blanckaert, K. (author), De Vriend, H.J. (author)In spite of its importance, little is known about the turbulence characteristics in open-channel bends. This paper reports on an experimental investigation of turbulence in one cross section of an open-channel bend. Typical flow features are a bicellular pattern of cross-stream circulation (secondary flow) and a turbulence activity in the outer...journal article 2005
