Class Objectives
/Class Outline |
This lecture course is mainly concerned with momentum and sediment transport processes in rivers. It aims at providing students with the ability of predicting the features of flood flows with sediment and associated changes in river morphology based on hydraulics. |
| Class Schedule |
Lesson 1: Introduction
Lesson 2 : River flow modeling (1), Three-dimensional Navie-Stokes equation and its applied to local flow around the river structures (single-phase flow)
Lesson 3 : River flow modeling (2), Three-dimensional Navie-Stokes equation and its applied to local scouring around the river structures (multiphase-phase flow)
Lesson 4 : River flow modeling (3), derivations of shallow water flow equations
Lesson 5 : River flow modeling (4), derivations of shallow water flow equations
Lesson 6 : River flow modeling (5), flood simulation using shallow water flow equations
Lesson 7 : River flow modeling (6), flood simulation using shallow water flow equations (Assignment)
Lesson 8 : Sediment transport & morphodynamics (1), sediment transport dynamics
Lesson 9 : Sediment transport & morphodynamics (2), sediment transport dynamics
Lesson 10 : Sediment transport & morphodynamics (3),Understanding of alluvial rivers
Lesson 11 : Sediment transport & morphodynamics (4),Understanding of bedrock rivers
Lesson 12 : Sediment transport & morphodynamics (5), two-dimensional morphodynamic model
Lesson 13 : Sediment transport & morphodynamics (6), two-dimensional morphodynamic model
