Turbulent Flow Structure in a Confluence: Influence of Tributaries Width and Discharge Ratios

River channel confluences are rather important interfaces where intense changes in physical, mixing and sediment transport processes occur. Following an experimental campaign, the main flow mechanisms in confluences and the development of the shear layer formed between the two tributary flows are pr...
