Fluid Mud Problems in Lakes, Reservoirs and Detention Ponds
An experimental study of wind induced surfacing of fluid mud bottoms in shallow water has been conducted. The experiments involved a channel placed within a wind tunnel, where a two-layered,...
The Bearing Capacity of Debris Flows
Debris flows are made of a cohesive muddy matrix in which large and heavy particles exist in suspension. To explain how these particles are maintained in suspension, several mechanisms...
Waves in a Fluid Mud Layer Flowing Down an Incline
To model the dynamics of fluid mud, lava, or debris with a high concentration of cohesive clay particles, we consider a thin sheet of Bingham plastic fluid flowing down a slope. The Bingham...
Experimental Investigation of Density-Driven Hyperconcentrated Flows
Lock-exchange type of laboratory experiments have been conducted in order to evaluate the dynamical characteristics of density-driven hyperconcentrated fluid mud. Fluid mud, confined in...
Instability of Water-Fluid Mud Interface
Erosion and entrainment of fluid mud are treated by means of shear flow analysis. The water-fluid mud system is considered as a layered system of two continua separated by a distinct interface...

New Developments About Mud Transport Models. Application to a Macrotidal Estuary
In order to assess the fate of fine particles and adsorbed contaminants due to tidal forcing in estuaries, a mathematical modeling system for cohesive suspended matter transport and bottom...
Sediment Transport Model for Muddy Tidal Rivers
This paper describes the development and application of a one-dimensional mathematical model capable of simulating the changes to the cross-sections of a muddy tidal river over a time...
Suspended Sediment Regression Model on Mud Coasts
Two statistical models of the concentration of suspended sediment on mud coasts have been developed by using the stepwise regression method. The statistical analysis in this paper is based...
Hyperconcentrations, Mud and Debris Flows?A Summary
Brief descriptions of the properties of mud and debris flow and hyperconcentrated stream flow materials and their importance to the descriptions and modeling of these flows are presented....
Field Data Collection and Analysis of Hyperconcentrations and Mud Flows
Hyperconcentrated flows and mud flows exhibit properties quite dissimilar from Newtonian fluids. In order to further our understanding of such phenomena, field data have been collected...
Sedimentation in Mud Mountain Reservoir at High Discharge
Mud Mountain Dam is a single purpose flood control project completed in 1948 on the White River in the State of Washington. The White River drains the northern and northeastern slopes...
Estuarine Mud Flow Modeling
This paper presents a model for the simulation of selective withdrawal of estuarine mud. This research is part of the investigation of the design of a mud pumping plant as an alternative...
Hydraulic Design of Mud Mountain Dam Outlet Works Modifications
Mud Mountain Dam is a single-purpose flood control project located on the White River in western Washington State. The existing flood control outlet works consist of an upstream controlled...
