the effects of changing roughness on the flow structure in the bends

flow in natural river bends is a complex and turbulent phenomenon which affects the scour and sedimentations and causes an irregular bed topography on the bed. for the reason, the flow hydralics and the parameters which affect the flow to be studied and understand. in this study the effect of bed and wall roughness using the software fluent discussed in a sharp 90-degree flume bend with 40.3cm ...

Special issue on the Design of Intelligent Environment

When we analyse behaviour from the viewpoint of information technologies, computer-supportedsystems may be mainly divided into two types of functional mechanisms. There are processing means and communication means. These two systems sort our activities from the view of Function and Mechanism. This special issue focuses on the correspondence between persons and computers or information systems a...
