Sediment mass movement of a particle-laden turbidity current based on ultrasound velocity profiling and the distribution of sediment concentration

Giovanni De Cesare, Shun Nomura, Jumpei Hitomi

Particle-laden flows or turbidity currents along the seafloor are important to the formation and erosion of submarine topography. To understand the mass-transport process, flume tests were carried out with a continuous supply of quartz-laden suspension. Th ...

Entrainment, transport and deposition of sediment by saline gravity currents

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Jessica Zordan, Carmelo Juez Jiménez

Few studies have addressed simultaneously the feedback between the hydrodynamics of a gravity cur- rent and the geomorphological changes of a mobile bed. Hydrodynamic quantities such as turbulent and mean velocities, bed shear stress and turbulent stresses ...

A multiscale model for sediment impact erosion simulation using the finite volume particle method

François Avellan, Ebrahim Jahanbakhsh, Sebastián Camilo Leguizamón Sarmiento, Siamak Alimirzazadeh, Audrey Paulette Solange Maertens

The erosion of a surface by a sediment-laden flow is an inherently multiscale phenomenon which includes physical interactions covering many orders of magnitude in both length and time scales. Conforming to the nature of the problem, we propose a novel mult ...
