Book excerpt: This report describes a series of experiments that were performed in a laboratory flume that was adapted to allow computer control of the independent experimental variables, and computer acquisition of data during experiments. The object of the study was to relate the Darcy-Weisbach resistance coefficient of an alluvial channel flow to the bed roughness as expressed by the standard deviation of bed elevation records (a measure of the dune and antidune roughness height). Since the Darcy-Weisbach coefficient in an alluvial channel shows considerable time variation even in supposedly steady uniform flows, and since the bed roughness, as measured from the time records of the bed elevation, is a stochastic quantity; time records of the Darcy-Weisbach coefficient and of the bed elevation were analyzed to obtain probability density functions, which were typified by means values and standard deviations of the relevant quantities. Autocorrelation functions of the time records were also computed and plotted. From these functions, time constants for variation of the resistance coefficient and for the propagation of bed forms were obtained. The Darcy-Weisbach resistance coefficient is of importance in the development of mathematical models of streamflow for predicting floodwave propagation, channel bed and bank modification, and the intensity of fluvial attack on channel protection or river training structures.

Download or read book Alluvial Fan Flooding written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1996-10-07 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alluvial fans are gently sloping, fan-shaped landforms common at the base of mountain ranges in arid and semiarid regions such as the American West. Floods on alluvial fans, although characterized by relatively shallow depths, strike with little if any warning, can travel at extremely high velocities, and can carry a tremendous amount of sediment and debris. Such flooding presents unique problems to federal and state planners in terms of quantifying flood hazards, predicting the magnitude at which those hazards can be expected at a particular location, and devising reliable mitigation strategies. Alluvial Fan Flooding attempts to improve our capability to determine whether areas are subject to alluvial fan flooding and provides a practical perspective on how to make such a determination. The book presents criteria for determining whether an area is subject to flooding and provides examples of applying the definition and criteria to real situations in Arizona, California, New Mexico, Utah, and elsewhere. The volume also contains recommendations for the Federal Emergency Management Agency, which is primarily responsible for floodplain mapping, and for state and local decisionmakers involved in flood hazard reduction.

Download or read book Rivers written by Keith Richards and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-04-01 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1982, this book presents a detailed review of alluvial river form and process and integrates the distinct but related approaches of geomorphologists, geologists and engineers to the subject. It outlines the environmental catchment factors that control the development of channel equilibrium and provides a detailed account of the sediment transport processes that represent the physical mechanisms by which channel adjustment occurs. Where possible it evaluates theoretical analyses in the context of the empirical evidence. Rivers should prove a valuable textbook for geomorphology students on advanced undergraduate courses on river behaviour and will also be of interest to students of hydraulics and sedimentology and to those concerned with civil and environmental engineering, river management and channel design, maintenance and management in the water industry

Download or read book Flow and Sediment Transport in Compound Channels written by S. Ikeda and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2009-07-01 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph provides a comprehensive state-of-the-art description of the work carried out in the UK and Japan on "Flow and Sediment Transport in Compound Channels". It therefore describes research which has been conducted, primarily over the last two decades, and which has yielded a fairly detailed picture of the important behaviours of compound channels and produced a number of engineering prediction methods which ought to be widely adopted in practice. The text will inevitably highlight areas where our knowledge is sparse and it will spur others on in the task of filling in such gaps. The concept of bi-national groups of researchers meeting together intermittently over period of some years, though not new, has drawn both inspiration and experience and the interaction has produced tangible outcomes in the form of this useful publication.
