Turbidity Currents and Seabed Morphology
Our main goal is to assess the hydrodynamics of turbidity currents and mudflows and their ability to produce morphological features such as ripples, dunes, antidunes and gullies along their paths. Of particular interest is to elucidate the role played by turbidity currents on the inception of submarine channels and canyons. To this end, understanding the mechanics of sediment erosion, including...
متن کاملTurbidity Currents and Their Deposits
The article surveys the current state of our understanding of turbidity currents, with an emphasis on their fluid mechanics. It highlights the significant role these currents play within the global sediment cycle, and their importance in environmental processes and in the formation of hydrocarbon reservoirs. Events and mechanisms governing the initiation of turbidity currents are reviewed, alon...
متن کاملParticle Image Velocimetry (PIV) for Granular Avalanches on Inclined Planes
This paper is concerned with experimental results of sand avalanches flowing down inclined plexiglass chutes with lateral confinement. Specifically we introduce the particle image velocimetry (PIV) technique for granular avalanches. We discuss the differences and problems in comparison with “usual” PIV. After this, we present surface and side velocity measurements that are obtained at different...
متن کاملGas-Liquid Flow on Smooth and Textured Inclined Planes
Carbon Capture & Storage (CCS) is one of the various methods that can be used to reduce the carbon footprint of the energy sector. This paper focuses on the absorption of CO2 from flue gas using packed columns, whose efficiency is highly dependent on the structure of the liquid films within the column. To study the characteristics of liquid films a CFD solver, OpenFOAM is utilised to solve two-...
متن کاملMonodisperse dry granular flows on inclined planes: role of roughness.
Recent studies have pointed out the importance of the basal friction on the dynamics of granular flows. We present experimental results on the influence of the roughness of the inclined plane on the dynamics of a monodisperse dry granular flow. We found experimentally that there exists a maximum of the friction for a given relative roughness. This maximum is shown to be independent of the slope...
