Sediment Transport in Sheet Flow Regime
Beta-Rayleigh Distribution for Shallow Water Wave Heights
Surfzone Wave Velocity Momennts
Riprap Stability on Channel Slide Slopes
The stability of riprap placed on a sloping bank is decreased because one component of gravity tends to displace the rock down the slope. Results of riprap stability tests on sloping banks...
Laboratory Study of Mud Flows
In the study reported depth profiles and tip velocities were measured for a series of unsteady mud flows generated in a laboratory flume using a dam break scenario. Observation of a wide...
Discharge and Depth Behind a Partially Breached Dam
The role that the velocity-distribution correction factor plays in the determination of the flood discharge and corresponding flow depth behind a partially breached dam is investigated....
Comparison of Some River Discharge Calculation Methods
To measure the discharge of a river, it is necessary to develop a stage-discharge curve based on water velocity at various cross sections of the river. This is the method which is used...
Depleted Uranium Migration in Stream Bedload Environment
The objective of this paper is to present results of a comprehensive hydrologic transport study, designed to assess potential surface water contamination, resulting from the release of...
Versatile Methodology for Flow Depth and Velocity Modeling in Stream Aquatic Habitat Assessment
The habitat assessment methodology developed by the IFG Instream Flow Group is a useful tool for evaluating instream flow needs. The methodology for basin flow modeling developed in this...
Correlation Between Seismic Wave Velocity and the Number of Blow of SPT and Depths
Influence of Rock Moisture on the Longitudinal Wave Velocity
Open Channel Flow Resistance in Horseshoe Conduits
An experimental study of open channel flow resistance in horseshoe-shaped conduits is reported. The friction factor is shown to increase approximately 20 percent in comparison to values...
Minimum Energy Loss and Velocity Profiles in Pipes
Minimum energy loss in a flow is discussed. The concept is applied to derive velocity distributions for laminar flow through a circular pipe and steady uniform turbulent flow through a...
Analysis of Cross-Shore Circulation on a Beach
Estimating Average Velocity in Cobble-Bed Channels
A data set obtained from natural channels having D//5//0 less than 64 mm and d/D//5//0 in the range of 3 to 20 is used as a basis for testing equations proposed by Limerinos, Thompson...
Physical Modeling of Contracted Flow
Experiments on steady flow over uniform grass roughness through centered single-opening contractions were conducted in the Flood Plain Simulation Facility at the U. S. Geological Survey's...
A Shoaling-Refraction Model Using a Non-linear Velocity Potential Wave Theory
Laser-2-Focus Flow Measurements in the Runner of a Bulb Turbine and Comparison with Calculation
Flow measurements are presented, which were carried out near and inside the 4-blade runner of an axial model bulb turbine of double adjustable type. These measurements were performed by...
Index Testing—Relative Turbine Performance
The Index method of testing hydraulic turbines consists of making a test in which the value of power output and head are measured and in which the quantities of water and velocity head...
