A bed pressure correction of the friction term for depth-averaged granular flow models

Mathematical Modeling of Flow in a Granular Permeable Bed Channel

In this research, a two-dimensional mathematical model using  turbulence model was developed in a rectangular channel with granular permeable bed. Finite volume method was used for numerical solution of governing equations. The equations considered are discretized using Hybrid difference scheme while applying SIMPLE algorithm to correct velocity components in the continuity equation. In the dev...

Numerical Flood Simulation by Depth Averaged Free Surface Flow Models

Numerical Investigation of Island Effects on Depth Averaged Fluctuating Flow in the Persian Gulf

In the present paper simulation of tidal currents on three-dimensional geometry of the Persian Gulf is performed by the solution of the depth averaged hydrodynamics equations. The numerical solution was applied on two types of discritized simulation domain (Persian Gulf); with and without major islands. The hydrodynamic model utilized in this work is formed by equations of continuity and motion...

Pressure wave propagation in a granular bed.

The transmission of pressure waves in granular materials is complicated by the heterogeneity and nonlinearity inherent in these systems. Such waves are propagated through particle contacts primarily along the "force chains" which carry most of the load in granular materials. These fragile and ephemeral chains coupled with irregular particle packing lead to the observed heterogeneity. Nonlineari...

Numerical Modeling of the Depth-Averaged Flow Over a Hill

This paper reports the development and application of a 2D depth-averaged model. The main goal of this contribution is to apply the depth averaged equations to a wind park model in which the treatment of the geometry, introduced on the mathematical model by the mass and momentum source terms. The depth-averaged model will be used in future to find the optimal position of wind turbines in the wi...
