Basal Pressure Variations Induced by a Turbulent Flow Over a Wavy Surface

Turbulent flows over wavy surfaces give rise to the formation of ripples, dunes and other natural bedforms. To predict how much sediment these flows transport, research has focused mainly on basal shear stress, which peaks upstream of the highest topography, and has largely ignored the corresponding...
