Coastal zones which are known as the interface between continents and oceans are vital and important to human beings because a majority of the world's population live in such zones (Nelson, 2007). Coastal systems are among the most dynamic and energetic environments on earth and they are continuously changing because of the dynamic interaction...

Qinghua, Y. (author)
In the Dutch coastal zone, where the marine environment is characterized by shallow depths and highly energetic hydrodynamic conditions, the cohesive sediments, or mud, play an important role in the local morphology. For instance, mud deposits and high concentrations of suspended particulate matter (SPM) occur frequently, especially during...

The Feiyun River, with a length of 203 km and a catchment area of 3252 km2, is one of eight rivers in Zheijiang Province (see fig.1-1), China. It flows into the East China Sea in Shangwang of Ruian City. The source of Feiyun River is at Xialing located in the border between Zheijiang and Fujian Province. The tidal influence can reach up the...

Kranenburg, C. (author)
A derivation is presented of a general cross-section averaged model of longitudinal dispersion, which is based on the notion of the advection of tracer particles. Particle displacement length and particle travel time are conceived as stochastic variables, and a joint probability density function is introduced to arrive at an integral advection...

In this report, some classical and new simplifications in mathematical and numerical models for river morphology are compared for conditions representing rivers in mountainous areas (high values of Froude numbers and relatively large values of sediment transport rates). Options for simplification are summarized based on time scale of hydrographs...

This report focusses on discontinuous behaviour of hydraulics and morphology in rivers. The varying widths, slopes and bed levels that can be observed in mountain rivers can induce rapid, or discontinuous changes at a short lengthscale. When present, these discontinuities have a major impact on changes in water and bed levels during floods. In...

Sieben, A. (author)
The ability of describing and predicting hydraulic and morphological phenomena in mountain rivers is limited, partially due to the limits of deterministic approaches where stochastic effects in sediment supply and water inflow are extremely significant, and partially due to the very specific conditions that can be observed in mountain rivers,...

Sieben, J. (author)
Present knowledge on fluvial processes in mountain rivers should be expanded to enable the development of projects dealing with mountain rivers or mountain-river catchment areas. This study reviews research on hydraulic and morphological features of mountain rivers. A major characteristic of mountain rivers is the variability of the hydraulic...

Bed-levelling experiments are conducted in a straight laboratory channel. The experiments involve a significant fraction of suspended sediment transport. The purpose of the experiments is to provide data for modelling of the direction of sediment transport on a transverse sloping alluvial river bed, specifically in presence of suspended sediment...

A suspended sediment transport experiment in a straight flume with a mobile bed is reported. The bed topography is non-horizontal. The flow is steady. Due to an obstruction in the entrance a steady bed oscillation is generated. The bed topography is measured by means of manual bed soundings (by Delft Hydraulics). Suspended sediment...

A laboratory experiment in a 180 degree curved flume with a mobile bed and suspended sediment transport is reported. The flow is steady. The bed topography is measured by means of a profile indicator. Free and forced alternating bars are present. The steady part of the bed topography, which is forced by curvature, is characterized by a below...

Mosselman, E. (author)
A numerical two-dimensional model for river morphology is extended with bank erosion. The model is formulated in curvilinear coordinates. This allows the use of a boundary-fitted computational grid, suited for rivers with a curved centre-line and a non-uni form width. Dealing with non-homogeneous bank erodibility is shown to require a non...

Hoffmans, G.J.C.M. (author)
Some information is given how to use the scour model DUCT-SUSTRA (Hoffmans, 1991). The scour model predicts the morphological process in scour holes or trenches and consists of two separated sub-models: a flow model DUCT and a morphological model SUSTRA. The flow model is based on the equation of continuity and the momentum equations for...

A laboratory experiment in a 180 degree curved flume with a mobile bed and suspended sediment transport is described. The flow is steady. The median sediment diameter (160 micrometer) is larger than in the preceeding experiments, run no. 1 to 3 (90 micrometer). The bed topography is measured by means of a profile indicator. The bed topography is...

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...

A laboratory experiment in a 180 degree curved flume with a mobile bed and suspended sediment transport is described. The flow is steady. The bed topography is measured by means of a profile indicator. The bed topography is characterized by a slowly damped oscillation of the transverse bed slope. Downstream of the bend entrance a pool and a...

It is very convenient to make use of rivers as water supply for various purposes, i.e. irrigation, industrial and domestic uses. Even if it is a very common practice, the utilization of river waters must be carefully planned and its consequences analysed. For example, before starting on a new withdrawal of water the need of water supply more...
