Dj. Needham et Ddl. Zanre, ON THE ALLUVIAL HYDRAULICS OF STEADY FLOW AROUND A BRIDGE PIER, Geophysical and astrophysical fluid dynamics, 84(3-4), 1997, pp. 205-243
In the paper we develop an alluvial hydraulic theory for the Bow of an
alluvial river around the base of a bridge pier. General results are
established and then the cases of particular pier geometries are consi
dered, Finally, the effects of Bow separation on the hydraulic theory
are assessed.
