Determination of Emergent Vegetation Effects on Manning’s Coefficient of Gradually Varied Flow

Based on mechanical derivation, a new formula showing the effects of emergent vegetation on Manning's coefficient was established for complex gradually varied flow affected by rigid unsubmerged vegetation in open channels. The new formula indicates that the Manning's coefficient is a quadr...
