Book Extension of the 2DH Saint Venant Hydrodynamic Model for Flows with Vertical Acceleration

Download or read book Extension of the 2DH Saint Venant Hydrodynamic Model for Flows with Vertical Acceleration written by Edmond Edjrossè Tossou and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cette étude présente le modèle bidimensionnel horizontal (2DH) de Serre qui constitue une extension de celui de Saint-Venant (SV) auquel des termes supplémentaires d'accélération verticale sont ajoutés pour tenir compte de la présence de pression dynamique dans l'écoulement. Ses hypothèses sont exposées puis ses équations constitutives sont clairement développées en vue de faciliter sa compréhension. Afin d'éliminer la principale source de difficulté justifiant son manque de popularité et le rendre compatible avec la plupart des schémas numériques, un nouveau format est ensuite établi en séparant les dérivées spatiales de celles temporelles. Partant d'une expansion en séries de Taylor de deuxième ordre, des termes de diffusion artificielle sont ajoutés aux équations dynamiques puis à celle de continuité. Le système résultant est alors résolu à l'aide de la méthode standard des éléments finis utilisant des éléments triangulaires dits non-conformes en raison de leurs intéressantes propriétés d'orthogonalité. La simulation d'un bassin en eau calme puis d'un écoulement permanent uniforme à l'aide du code Matlab® correspondant aboutit exactement aux résultats analytiques escomptés. Le test de propagation d'onde solitaire est également satisfaisant (phase et amplitude). De plus, le modèle simule également bien l'écoulement de rupture de barrage. Cependant, les ondes prédites par le modèle de SV avancent plus vite que celles de Serre. La pression dynamique retarde donc la propagation de ces ondes. L'augmentation de la pente du fond accélère les ondes aussi bien pour Serre que pour SV mais réduit l'écart entre les fronts correspondant aux deux modèles. Un comportement inverse est observé lorsque le fond devient davantage rugueux ainsi que quand le ratio des niveaux d'eau aux deux extrémités du domaine s'accroît. La méthode de diffusion ajoutée s'est également révélée efficace pour la capture des ondes de rupture de barrage sans détérioration de la qualité des résultats numériques. Enfin, après avoir éliminé l'hypothèse de fluide non visqueux selon la verticale posée par Serre, le modèle 'Saint-Venant Plus' (SVP) est développé pour pouvoir tenir compte des contraintes visqueuses verticales significatives dans certains écoulements naturels. Cependant, la resolution numérique de SVP ne fait pas partie des objectifs de cette dièse qui présente seulement une comparaison théorique de la formulation mathématique de SVP avec celles des deux autres modèles (Serre et SV).

Book Water Waves  The Mathematical Theory with Applications

Download or read book Water Waves The Mathematical Theory with Applications written by James Johnston Stoker and published by Courier Dover Publications. This book was released on 2019-04-17 with total page 593 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1957, this is a classic monograph in the area of applied mathematics. It offers a connected account of the mathematical theory of wave motion in a liquid with a free surface and subjected to gravitational and other forces, together with applications to a wide variety of concrete physical problems. A never-surpassed text, it remains of permanent value to a wide range of scientists and engineers concerned with problems in fluid mechanics. The four-part treatment begins with a presentation of the derivation of the basic hydrodynamic theory for non-viscous incompressible fluids and a description of the two principal approximate theories that form the basis for the rest of the book. The second section centers on the approximate theory that results from small-amplitude wave motions. A consideration of problems involving waves in shallow water follows, and the text concludes with a selection of problems solved in terms of the exact theory. Despite the diversity of its topics, this text offers a unified, readable, and largely self-contained treatment.

Book Dynamic Response of Granular and Porous Materials under Large and Catastrophic Deformations

Download or read book Dynamic Response of Granular and Porous Materials under Large and Catastrophic Deformations written by Kolumban Hutter and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2003-03-24 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A "Sonderforschungsbereich" (SFB) is a programme of the "Deutsche For schungsgemeinschaft" to financially support a concentrated research effort of a number of scientists located principally at one University, Research La boratory or a number of these situated in close proximity to one another so that active interaction among individual scientists is easily possible. Such SFB are devoted to a topic, in our case "Deformation and Failure in Metallic and Granular M aterialK' , and financing is based on a peer reviewed proposal for three (now four) years with the intention of several prolongations after evaluation of intermediate progress and continuation reports. An SFB is terminated in general by a formal workshop, in which the state of the art of the achieved results is presented in oral or I and poster communications to which also guests are invited with whom the individual project investigators may have collaborated. Moreover, a research report in book form is produced in which a number of articles from these lectures are selected and collected, which present those research results that withstood a rigorous reviewing pro cess (with generally two or three referees). The theme deformation and failure of materials is presented here in two volumes of the Lecture Notes in Applied and Computational Mechanics by Springer Verlag, and the present volume is devoted to granular and porous continua. The complementary volume (Lecture Notes in Applied and Com putational Mechanics, vol. 10, Eds. K. HUTTER & H.

Book Hydrodynamics of Free Surface Flows

Download or read book Hydrodynamics of Free Surface Flows written by Jean-Michel Hervouet and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2007-06-13 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A definitive guide for accurate state-of-the-art modelling of free surface flows Understanding the dynamics of free surface flows is the starting point of many environmental studies, impact studies, and waterworks design. Typical applications, once the flows are known, are water quality, dam impact and safety, pollutant control, and sediment transport. These studies used to be done in the past with scale models, but these are now being replaced by numerical simulation performed by software suites called “hydro-informatic systems”. The Telemac system is the leading software package worldwide, and has been developed by Electricité de France and Jean-Michel Hervouet, who is the head and main developer of the Telemac project. Written by a leading authority on Computational Fluid Dynamics, the book aims to provide environmentalists, hydrologists, and engineers using hydro-informatic systems such as Telemac and the finite element method, with the knowledge of the basic principles, capabilities, different hypotheses, and limitations. In particular this book: presents the theory for understanding hydrodynamics through an extensive array of case studies such as tides, tsunamis, storm surges, floods, bores, dam break flood waves, density driven currents, hydraulic jumps, making this a principal reference on the topic gives a detailed examination and analysis of the notorious Malpasset dam failure includes a coherent description of finite elements in shallow water delivers a significant treatment of the state-of-the-art flow modelling techniques using Telemac, developed by Electricité de France provides the fundamental physics and theory of free surface flows to be utilised by courses on environmental flows Hydrodynamics of Free Surface Flows is essential reading for those involved in computational fluid dynamics and environmental impact assessments, as well as hydrologists, and bridge, coastal and dam engineers. Guiding readers from fundamental theory to the more advanced topics in the application of the finite element method and the Telemac System, this book is a key reference for a broad audience of students, lecturers, researchers and consultants, right through to the community of users of hydro-informatics systems.

Book Cohesive Sediments

Download or read book Cohesive Sediments written by Neville Burt and published by . This book was released on 1997-04-03 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is an alarming tendency today to assume that something calculated by a computer must be correct, yet the phrase 'garbage in, garbage out' (gigo) is possibly nowhere more (generally) appropriate than in computer modelling of cohesive sediment behaviour. The behaviour of 'mud' is highly complex and one only needs to look at a sample under a microscope to see why - the variety of particle shapes, not to mention the presence of living organisms, make it a substance with properties virtually unique to its situation which even change with time. For many years most researchers tended to avoid it, preferring to study sand and gravel, but a dedicated few tackled it and found a forum for discussing their work in the first Cohesive Sediments Workshop in Florida in 1980. The workshop met about every three years resulting in publication of some of the most definitive papers on the subject. By 1994 it was time to recognise the extensive research being carried on in Europe by holding the workshop in that region. Intercoh '94 (the 4th Nearshore and Estuarine Cohesive Sediment Transport Conference) drew together about 100 of the world's leading researchers in the field. The resulting papers, presented in this volume, truly represent the definitive state of the art on the measurement and modelling of mud properties today.
