Turbidity currents in the ocean and lakes are driven by suspended sediment. The vertical profiles of velocity and excess density are shaped by interaction between the current and bed as well as between the current and the ambient water. This paper presents 48 series of experiments in which saline gravity currents flow through a laboratory sinuous flume. flume contains three successive bends wit...

Practical concept of velocity distribution of pressure flow in the bends is interesting and hence, the professional engineering design has been investigated in the current study. This paper shows that velocity distribution in the bends can be analyzed in terms of the probability distributions. The concept of entropy based on the probability is an applied and new approach to achieve velocity pro...
