This book was released on 2022-11-22 with total page 1054 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book expounds the hydraulics of fine sediment which is almost ubiquitously found in coastal and estuarine waters, and in rivers, lakes, and reservoirs. Although the basic subject may be categorized as applied marine physics in shallow waters, several physicochemical and biological effects on particulate transport have been addressed.In this second edition most of the chapters have been substantially updated, rewritten, and expanded. Overall, a significant change has also been made throughout by replacing sediment concentration, a unit dependent quantity at the heart of numerous descriptions, measurements, and calculations, with the nondimensional sediment volume fraction. It marks a divergence in the manner in which fine sediment transport data and calculations are conventionally presented.The book is mainly written for civil engineering seniors and graduate students, to offer a comprehensive foundation in hydraulics of fine sediment. The book is also a useful reference for researchers interested in the effects of physical chemistry and biology on fine sediment transport in water and to an extent on coastal and estuarine morphodynamics, sediment transport, port and harbor engineering, and applied shallow watwer marine physics. The book is also recommended reading for those interested in understanding particle transport in water.Related Link(s)

This book was released on 2004-08-20 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an introduction to the physical processes of cohesive sediment in the marine environment. It focuses on highly dynamic systems, such as estuaries and coastal seas. Processes on the continental shelf are also discussed and attention is given to the effects of chemistry, biology and gas.The process descriptions are based on hydrodynamic and soil mechanic principles, which integrate at the soil-water interface. This approach is substantiated through a classification scheme of sediment occurrences in which distinction is made between cohesive and granular material. Emphasis is also placed on the important interactions between turbulent flow and cohesive sediment suspensions, and on the impact of flow-induced forces on the stability of the seabed. An overview of literature on cohesive sediment dynamics is presented and a number of new developments are highlighted, in particular in relation to floc formation, settling and sedimentation, consolidation, bed failure and liquefaction and erosion of the bed. Moreover, it presents a summary on methods and techniques to measure the various sediment properties necessary to quantify the various parameters in the physical-mathematical model descriptions. A number of examples and case studies have been included.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Triggerd primarily byill effects of polluted air, soil and water resources on living species, public concern for environmental quality has been growing during the past four decades or so. One manifestation of this concern is found in occurrence of public debates as well as in the demand for full environmental impact assessment before a water-resources project is approved. Engineering soundness and economic feasibility are no longer sufficient criteria for construction of hydraulic works. As a result, environmental considerations have become very much a part of hydraulic analyses. In response to growing environmental concerns, the field of hydraulics has expanded and a new branch, called Environmental Hydraulics, has emerged. The focus of this branch is on hydraulic analyses of those environmental issues that are important for protection, restoration, and managementof environmental quality. The motivation for this book grew out of the desire to provide a hydraulic discussion of some of the key environmental issues.It is hoped that the book would serve to stimulate others to write more comprehensive texts on this subject of growing importance.

Abstract: Abstract of thesis entitled MASS TRANSPORT DUE TO SURFACE WAVES IN A WATER-MUD SYSTEM submitted by Huang Lingyan for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Hong Kong in October 2005 The objective of the present work is to investigate the mass transport due to surface waves in a water-mud system. To study the dynamics without the excessive mathematical complication, it is assumed that there exist two superimposed shallow homogeneous layers of fluids subject to a periodic external wave forcing on the free surface, where the upper-layer is clear water as a Newtonian viscous fluid and the lower-layer mud is a shear-thinning power-law non-Newtonian fluid. To conveniently handle the mass transport which is Lagrangian by nature, the Lagrangian coordinates are adopted in this work. In this thesis, the two-layer system problem is solved by different stages. First, the problem is simplified to a single uniform layer of power-law fluid mud lying on a horizontal rigid bed and subject to a periodic external pressure load on the free surface. In this part, we shall develop a fully discrete Fourier-Chebyshev collocation method to find solutions of the first- and second-order nonlinear equations of motion of the mud. In the second part, we shall present a theoretical study on the mass transport due to external forcing of a spatially and temporally periodic surface pressure in a two- ilayer Newtonian viscous system, where the upper-layer is a very low viscosity fluid (e.g. clear water) and the lower-layer mud is a highly viscous fluid (e.g. concentrated fluid mud). Based on the Lagrangian coordinates, a perturbation analysis is carried out to the second order to find the mean Lagrangian drifts in the two layers. The first-order variables including displacements, velocity and pressure are found as part of the solutions. The analytical expression is obtained for the mass transport velocity in each layer, respectively. Through some numerical cases, the effects of external forcing magnitude and different mud properties on the mass transport velocity are investigated. In the third stage, the mass transport due to the above-mentioned standing wave forcing in a water-mud system, in which the lower-layer mud is a shear-thinning power-law non-Newtonian fluid, is investigated by a Fourier-Chebyshev collocation spectral method in space and 4th-order finite-difference scheme in time discretization. First, based on the assumptions of shallowness and small deformations, a perturbation analysis is carried out to the second order to yield the nonlinear governing equations of motion in terms of the Lagrangian variables. In the two-layer system, the governing equations are cast into a coupled time-dependent partial differential equation group. The Fourier-Chebyshev collocation method developed in the first part is then used to discretize the spatial derivatives in conjunction with a 4th-order finite-difference scheme in time-discretization. At last, some discussion on the mass transport under waves in a two-layer system and the application of the spectral method to time-dependent convection- diffusion equations will be presented. ii DOI: 10.5353/th_b3538045 Subjects: Water waves Sediment transport - Mathematical models Mud Viscous flow Lagrangian functions

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The SCOR (Scientific Committee on Ocean Research of ICSU) Working Group 106 was tasked with reviewing the geomorphic, sedimentary and oceanographic dynamics of muddy costs, assessing the impact of sea level rise on muddy coasts, especially in estuaries, and to recommend future research pathways relating to muddy coasts. This book addresses these questions and includes chapters on the research issues of muddy coasts, the definition of muddy coasts, sea level rise effects on muddy coasts, fundamental dynamic processes effecting muddy coast formation, the role of mangrove and salt marsh vegetation, bio-geochemistry of muddy coast deposits, storm surge effects on muddy coasts, human impacts on muddy coasts, and a detailed geographical review of muddy coasts of the world. The volume presents examples of muddy coasts sedimentation from many different environments of the world including the broad expanse muddy coast of China, muddy coasts of continental trailing edges (the Americas), muddy coasts in seasonally ice covered environments, muddy coasts in areas of tropical coral reefs, muddy coasts from the tropics, muddy coasts resulting from large river discharges, and muddy coasts of mid-latitude oceanic islands.
