Flow distributions and scouring around abutments in two-stage channels

In a two-stage channel, the interaction between floodplain and main channel flow is an essential feature that causes a momentum exchange between them. The momentum exchange affects the flow distribution in the floodplain and main channel, and the scouring around the abutment. The objectives of the p...

Summary:In a two-stage channel, the interaction between floodplain and main channel flow is an essential feature that causes a momentum exchange between them. The momentum exchange affects the flow distribution in the floodplain and main channel, and the scouring around the abutment. The objectives of the present research are to study the flow distribution and scouring around abutment terminated at the floodplain of a two-stage channel under clear water scour condition.
