Les mécanismes élémentaires d'érosion interne et d'érosion de surface sont abordés un à un : filtration, suffusion, érosion de contact, érosion de conduit, transport sédimentaire, transport par charriage. Privilégiant un angle d'approche mécanique/physique, les contributions alternent entre une vision phénoménologique résolument ancrée sur le fait expérimental et une description capable de proposer un cadre de modélisation. Dans ce traité, des physiciens et des mécaniciens font partager au lecteur les connaissances les plus récentes dans leur domaine tout en gardant une présentation accessible. Les étudiants, les chercheurs et les ingénieurs y trouveront une source d'information bien documentée, pour aborder de manière moderne l'érosion des géomatériaux.
Book Synopsis Modélisation d'une interface fluide/solide avec érosion by : Damien Lachouette
Download or read book Modélisation d'une interface fluide/solide avec érosion written by Damien Lachouette and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les phénomènes d'érosion sont une cause majeure dans la rupture des ouvrages hydrauliques tels que les digues ou les barrages. Le territoire compte 10000 km de digues, d'où un enjeu important en terme de risque d'inondation. Une approche plus générale est essentielle à une compréhension fine des phénomènes. La modélisation des mécanismes de l'érosion doit permettre l'élaboration de solutions pour sécuriser les ouvrages et les rendre moins sensibles à ces phénomènes. Ce travail est consacré à la modélisation d'une interface entre un milieu de sol et un milieu d'écoulement. Le mouvement de cette interface est régi par l'érosion du sol sous l'effet de l'écoulement. L'écoulement est calculé par les équations de Stokes munies d'un terme de pénalisation permettant la représentation unifiée des comportements des deux milieux. Dans une première partie, nous aborderons la problématique de la représentation de l'érosion. La seconde partie traite plus précisément de la représentation unifiée des comportements des milieux, notamment grâce à l'utilisation des méthodes de pénalisation. La troisième partie constitue une revue des principales méthodes permettant le suivit d'une interface. Une description précise de la méthode Level Set est donnée. Dans la quatrième partie, nous abordons la résolution numérique des équations d'écoulement. La cinquième partie rassemble l'ensemble des tests de la méthode. Enfin, la dernière partie est consacrée à l'application du modèle sur trois cas : le " Hole Erosion Test ", le phénomène de suffusion et l'érosion d'un lit de rivière autour d'une pile de pont.
Book Synopsis Fluid Mechanics of Environmental Interfaces, Second Edition by : Carlo Gualtieri
Download or read book Fluid Mechanics of Environmental Interfaces, Second Edition written by Carlo Gualtieri and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2012-11-21 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental Fluid Mechanics (EFM) studies the motion of air and water at several different scales, the fate and transport of species carried along by these fluids, and the interactions among those flows and geological, biological, and engineered systems. EFM emerged some decades ago as a response to the need for tools to study problems of flow and transport in rivers, estuaries, lakes, groundwater and the atmosphere; it is a topic of increasing importance for decision makers, engineers, and researchers alike. The second edition of the successful textbook "Fluid Mechanics of Environmental Interfaces" is still aimed at providing a comprehensive overview of fluid mechanical processes occurring at the different interfaces existing in the realm of EFM, such as the air-water interface, the air-land interface, the water-sediment interface, the surface water-groundwater interface, the water-vegetation interface, and the water-biological systems interface. Across any of these interfaces mass, momentum, and heat are exchanged through different fluid mechanical processes over various spatial and temporal scales. In this second edition, the unique feature of this book, considering all the topics from the point of view of the concept of environmental interface, was maintained while the chapters were updated and five new chapters have been added to significantly enlarge the coverage of the subject area. The book starts with a chapter introducing the concept of EFM and its scope, scales, processes and systems. Then, the book is structured in three parts with fifteen chapters. Part one, which is composed of four chapters, covers the processes occurring at the interfaces between the atmosphere and the surface of the land and the seas, including the transport of dust and the dispersion of passive substances within the atmosphere. Part two deals in five chapters with the fluid mechanics at the air-water interface at small scales and sediment-water interface, including the advective diffusion of air bubbles, the hyporheic exchange and the tidal bores. Finally, part three discusses in six chapters the processes at the interfaces between fluids and biotic systems, such as transport processes in the soil-vegetation-lower atmosphere system, turbulence and wind above and within the forest canopy, flow and mass transport in vegetated open channels, transport processes to and from benthic plants and animals and coupling between interacting environmental interfaces. Each chapter has an educational part, which is structured in four sections: a synopsis of the chapter, a list of keywords that the reader should have encountered in the chapter, a list of questions and a list of unsolved problems related to the topics covered by the chapter. The book will be of interest to graduate students and researchers in environmental sciences, civil engineering and environmental engineering, (geo)physics, atmospheric science, meteorology, limnology, oceanography, and applied mathematics.
Book Synopsis Dune Erosion During Storm Surges by : Jacob Simon Marie van Thiel de Vries
Download or read book Dune Erosion During Storm Surges written by Jacob Simon Marie van Thiel de Vries and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because large parts of The Netherlands lie below sea level and are largely protected from flooding by a narrow strip of sandy beaches and dunes, optimal management of this coastal strip is of vital importance. This work extends the existing knowledge of dune erosion during storm surges as it occurs along the Dutch coast. Among the areas discussed are: a large scale erosion experiment designed to improve insight into near dune hydrodynamics, sediment transport and interaction between dune face and swash zone; detailed modeling to study dune erosion physics, validated against measurements, and a morphodynamic dune erosion model applied in a variety of dune erosion conditions. This publication represents a valuable contribution to an improved understanding of dune erosion, an increasingly important area of study with regard to climate change and rising sea levels.

This book was released on 2016-11-14 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the formation of subaqueous patterns by means of high-fidelity numerical simulations which resolve all the relevant scales of the flow and the sediment bed. This is required to provide a space- and time-resolved information on the flow field and the sediment bed. Secondly, detailed analysis of the generated data allows to address the different governing mechanisms involved in the formation of patterns as well as to access the validity of various existing models.
Book Synopsis Dune Erosion Models and Swash Zone Kinematics from Remote Video Observations by : Margaret L. Palmsten
Download or read book Dune Erosion Models and Swash Zone Kinematics from Remote Video Observations written by Margaret L. Palmsten and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subaerial beach, composed of sand dunes and the foreshore, provides a natural buffer zone between vulnerable land and the dissipation of storm wave energy due to wave breaking. The natural beauty of this region is attractive to people, and as a result, significant investment has been placed in this relatively unstable strip between land and water. During storms, when water levels and waves exceed the base of the dune and the dunes are vulnerable to erosion, development and ecosystems landward of the dune are at risk. Ideally, predictive models would forecast potential dune erosion, allowing appropriate management response. One class of existing dune erosion models is based on assumed avalanching once foreshore slopes exceed a user defined maximum value, although vertical or even overhanging dunes frequently occur in nature, suggesting that a maximum slope is not a universal parameterization. Another approach relates the volume of eroded sediment to the normal force of impact via an empirical coefficient. However, neither of these approaches addresses the fundamental physics controlling dune erosion. The objective of this dissertation is two-fold. The primary objective is to improve our understanding of the physics driving dune erosion and develop new predictive models. The secondary objective is to develop innovative new methods for studying the dune and foreshore using remotely sensed observations that can provide the data needed to improve our understanding of the processes. The first section of this dissertation focuses on developing a stereo video method for making quantitative observations of dune erosion at higher spatial and temporal resolution than traditional measurements allow. Resolution of the technique is 0.1 m in the horizontal and 0.04 m in the vertical. Errors were on the order of 0.02 m to 0.08 m (1 to 2 pixels) when compared with in situ surveys. Newly developed confidence intervals accurately quantified observed scatter from the stereo technique. The method was implemented in a large-scale wave flume experiment designed to reproduce a storm hydrograph. The new observations of dune morphology were used to improve an existing dune erosion model, accounting for the interaction between fluid and sediment by relating the momentum flux from waves onto the dune directly to eroded volume. We improved parameterizations for offshore wave forcing in the model based on an assumed normal distribution of swash on dunes. The model reproduced 64% of the observed variance in observations given known forcing at the dune and 55% of observed variance based on the new parameterizations of offshore forcing. The second section describes the development of a new dune erosion model based on observations from the dune erosion experiment. In the new model, the dune slumps when the weight of the dune plus the weight of water infiltrated from swash exceeds the resisting strength of the sediment. Eroded volume of sediment is then equal to the infiltrated volume of sediment. Infiltration was modeled using Darcy's Law substituted into the continuity equation. The resulting model explains 72% of the observed variance in eroded volume. The final section of this dissertation describes a method for observing swash kinematics by tracking foam on the swash. This technique is useful for making observations on the foreshore where in situ instrumentation is difficult to maintain and significantly alters the flow to be measured. The method was compared with in situ observations collecting using an acoustic Doppler velocimeter. Coherence squared between observations and model was between 0.8 and 0.9 over the energetic frequencies, suggesting that this method would be useful for studying hydrodynamic forcing of sediment transport in the foreshore region.
Book Synopsis Dune Erosion, Mega-cusps and Rip Currents by :
Download or read book Dune Erosion, Mega-cusps and Rip Currents written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sand dune erosion is highly episodic occurring only when storm waves coincide with high tides generating swash that impacts the toe of the dune. Owing to the episodic nature of sand dune erosion, it is difficult to observe in nature. The removal of a structure and rip-rap sea-wall from the Stilwell Hall site located in southern Monterey Bay provided a unique opportunity to study erosion processes at an accelerated rate. A 1-D wave impact line erosion model (Larson et al., 2004) was tested against data acquired at this site between April, 2004 and April 2005. The model was optimally tuned to the data by a dimensionless coefficient that relates the impact force to the rate of recession. The coefficient values ranged from 0.7-1.3x10-3, for this field data, compared with values of 1.0-2.5x10-3 previously obtained for lab and field data. Migrating rip currents create a system of mega-cusps, which are nominally 10m in width and 200m in alongshore wavelength (Thornton, 2005). The presence of mega- cusps is hypothesized to accelerate sand dune erosion at their embayments where the beach is steeper and narrowest (Short, 1979; Shih and Komar, 1984; Revell, et al., 2002). It was determined that the highest recession occurred at the location of the rip current/mega-cusp embayment. Changes in the surf climate are of great interest to Naval Special Warfare (NSW) and U.S. Marine Corps (USMC) forces tasked with planning and executing operations in littoral areas. Naval history is replete with operations highlighting the importance of understanding and accurate prediction of nearshore dynamics. Without the ability to predict nearshore morphologic processes, providing such support is impossible.
