Debris flows are often described as a succession of surges, which characterized by enhanced peak depth and velocity therefore tremendous increase their destructive power. For given characteristics the base flow, if channel is sufficiently long to allow an appreciable wave development, linear stability analysis in shallow streams shown provide reasonable prediction critical flow condition instability growth rate. The one‐dimensional (1‐D) theory, however, does not determination period fastest...
European seas are encountering an upsurge in competing marine activities and infrastructures. Traditional exploitation such as fisheries, tourism, transportation, oil production accompanied by new sustainable economic offshore windfarms, aquaculture, tidal wave energy. One proposed solution to overcome possible claims at sea lies combining these part of Multi-Use Platforms Sea (MUPS). MUPS can be understood areas sea, designated for a combination activities, either completely integrated...
This contribution presents a new Artificial Neural Network (ANN) tool that is able to predict the main parameters describing wave-structure interaction processes: mean wave overtopping discharge (q), transmission and reflection coefficients (Kt Kr). ANN trained on an extended database (based CLASH database) of physical model tests, including at least one three output parameters, for total number nearly 18,000 tests. The selected 15 nondimensional input represent most significant effects...
To accurately predict the consequences of nearshore waves, coastal engineers often employ numerical models. A variety these models, broadly classified as either phase-resolving or phase-averaged, exist; each with strengths and limitations owing to physical schematization processes within them. Models which resolve vertical flow structure full wave spectrum (i.e. sea-swell (SS) infragravity (IG) waves) are considered more accurate, but also computationally demanding than those approximations....
Objectives of this work are to experimentally analyse the dynamic impact dry avalanches on structures and examine possibility extending results debris flows; identify structure efficiency in terms extension shape deposition area; numerically validate adequacy shallow-water equations reproducing process maximum force obstacle; finally propose an analytical expression for estimating design force. Experiments were carried out two sandy mixtures flowing down a steep chute impacting obstacles...
