Model for the erosion onset of a granular bed sheared by a viscous fluid

Matthieu Wyart

We study theoretically the erosion threshold of a granular bed forced by a viscous fluid. We first introduce a model of interacting particles driven on a rough substrate. It predicts a continuous transition at some threshold forcing theta(c), beyond which ...

Scale-free channeling patterns near the onset of erosion of sheared granular beds

Matthieu Wyart

Erosion shapes our landscape and occurs when a sufficient shear stress is exerted by a fluid on a sedimented layer. What controls erosion at a microscopic level remains debated, especially near the threshold forcing where it stops. Here we study, experimen ...

Time-dependent failure analysis of large block size riprap as bank protection in mountain rivers

Mona Jafarnejad Chaghooshi

Erodible river banks need to be safe against the possible scouring during flood events in mountain rivers. The consequences of the bank failure are probably lateral uncontrolled erosion and flooding with disastrous losses in residential areas or damage of ...

Sediment replenishment: Influence of the geometrical configuration on the morphological evolution of channel-bed

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Elena Battisacco

Dams trap sediment in the upstream reservoir, which may lead to river bed armoring, streambank erosion and failure, channel incision and reduction of the morphological diversity in the downstream river reaches. The replenishment of sediment is a mitigation ...
