Assessment of the safe evacuation of people walking through flooding staircases based on numerical simulation
A numerical model was developed to evaluate the possibility of people walking in a flooding flow on a staircase with rest platforms. Commercial software was used and validated by experimental data for flows on...

Hydraulic jump basins with wedge-shaped baffles
This laboratory study deals with the hydraulic jump properties for an artificially roughened bed with wedge-shaped baffle blocks. The experiments were conducted for both smooth and rough beds with a Froude num...

Vertical distribution of sediment concentration
A simple formula is proposed to predict the vertical distribution of a suspended load concentration in a 2D steady turbulent flow. The proposed formula significantly improves the well-known Rouse formula where...

Primary instabilities and bicriticality in fiber suspensions between rotating cylinders
The linear stability of fiber suspensions between two concentric cylinders rotating independently is studied. The modified stability equation is obtained based on the fiber orientation model and Hinch-Leal clo...

Equilibrium bed-concentration of nonuniform sediment
Knowledge of the equilibrium bed-concentration is vital to mathematical modeling of the river-bed deformation associated with suspended load but previous investigations only dealt with the reference concentrat...
