the study of flow in compound channels with vegetated floodplains is essential to assessing the development of the stage-discharge relationship and sediment and pollutant transport. the present study experimentally investigated mean flow and turbulence characteristics in a prismatic compound channel. the experimental program consisted of vegetated and non-vegetated floodplains with different re...

secondary flow investigation could be regarded as an important issue in open channel flow, in spite of its lower quantity compared to the base flow in the water course. it should be given special consideration because of the influence on some hydraulic factors in open channel, specifically in compound channels. in compound channels' due to the difference in the flow velocity of the main ch...

Flow-like landslides commonly happen in mountainous areas and may threaten people’s lives, damage their properties, create negative impact on the environment. Computer modelling has become an effective tool to support landslide risk assessment management. Models based discrete element method (DEM) can capture micro-mechanical behaviour of soils, simulate large deformation have been widely used ...
