River Restoration and Meanders
Among the most visually striking river restoration projects are those that involve the creation of a new channel, often in a new alignment and generally with a form and dimensions that are different from those of the preproject channel. These channel reconstruction projects often have the objective of creating a stable, single-thread, meandering channel, even on rivers that were not historicall...
متن کاملIThe Development of Traffic Engineering in Australia
M cars first appeared on Australian roads in about 1900, and road laws, as they are known today, began to evolve soon after. For several years traffic control in Australia was largely a police responsibility, but by the mid to late 1930sthe principles of traffic engineering, including the need to consider the road, the vehicle, the driver, and the traffic rules as an integrated system, were bei...
متن کاملRecognizing Meanders to Reconstruct River Dynamics of the Ganges
The long-term discharge evolution of branches of rivers can potentially be derived from inactive and fossil river meanders using relations between discharge and channel width and meander dimensions. This evolution is relevant for the understanding of river dynamics and avulsion, and the resulting changes of downstream flooding risks and shipping conveyance. Unfortunately, digitalisation of infi...
متن کاملEstimators for anticipating river meanders: a comparative study
Increasingly, marine robots and unmanned surface vehicles will be deployed in rivers and riverine environments. The structure produced by flowing waters is worth investigating because it may be exploited for purposes of estimation, planning, and control. This report adopts a widely acknowledged model for the geometry of watercourse channels, namely sine-generated curves, as a basis for estimato...
متن کاملIThe theory of optimal reductions
We introduce a new class of higher order rewriting systems, called Interaction Systems (IS's). IS's come from Lafont's (Intuitionistic) Interaction Nets Lafont 1990] by dropping the linearity constraint. In particular, we borrow from Interaction Nets the syntactical bipartitions of operators into constructors and destructors and the principle of binary interaction. As a consequence, IS's are a ...
