AbstractThis study presents LES results of two colliding gravity currents, with different densities and/or heights, in a half-depth lock-exchange set-up. The dynamical features of collision for gravity currents with different densities and heights, the post-collision motion and the mixing are examined for the first time. It is found that the maximum height of the displaced fluid depends on the gravity currents heights difference, while it is not affected by their density difference. Maximum vertical velocity during collision depends on both height and density difference and decreases with increasing asymmetry. Post-collision phase consists of two counterflowing bores with almost constant velocities and heights with time. When the collided gravity currents have considerably different densities or heights only one bore emerges after collision. Bore velocities agree relatively well with the hydraulic theory of gravity currents collision with different heights. Mixing is enhanced during collision consuming approximately 20% of the total consumed system energy.Keywords: Collisiongravity currentslarge-eddy simulationlock-exchangemixing AcknowledgementsThe simulations for this work have been performed using the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTh) High Performance Computing Infrastructure and Resources.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis project is part of the first author’s doctoral thesis.

ABSTRACTA debris jam causes extra load and associated scour on a bridge pier, and this significantly affects the safety of the bridge. Laboratory experiments were conducted to investigate the flow field around half-cone shaped debris jams of equal size, following the geometry in previous field studies, but with different surface roughness. The debris jams were assembled using dowels or by 3D printing. The results indicate three zones were observed behind the debris jam: the wake dead zone, high shear transition zone, and accelerated high-speed zone. A debris jam enlarges the dead zone while Reynolds shear stress was greatest in the transition zone for all debris jam cases. Additionally, the drag coefficient of debris jams built by dowels was greater compared with the 3D-printed debris jam, attributed to the debris jam roughness. In summary, debris jams form the wake dead zone behind the pier, increase downward flow in front of the pier, and enhance flow acceleration around the pier, highlighting the potential hazards to bridge safety.Keywords: Debris jamdrag coefficientflow fieldReynolds shearsingle pier Supplemental dataSupplemental data for this article can be accessed online at https://doi.org/10.1080/00221686.2023.2259859.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThe first author would thank the joint financial support provided by the China Scholarship Council and the University of Ottawa.

AbstractIn this study we conducted laboratory experiments to examine the gravity currents produced from a constant inflow propagating on unbounded uniform slopes in the range 0∘≤θ≤15∘. In the experiments, the inlet Reynolds number and the slope angle were varied systematically. The study carried out dimensional analysis and quantified five dimensionless parameters, thereby characterizing the development of gravity currents. Top-view images shown in the experiments exhibited gravity currents in an elongated shape when propagating on steeper slopes larger than 6∘ but a round shape on milder slopes less than 3∘. The study finds that the five dimensionless parameters, which are functions of the slope angle, have near constant values for sufficiently large inlet Reynolds number, suggesting that the flow is approaching the regime of Reynolds number independence. The results from our experiments are expected to be applicable to gravity currents produced from a constant inflow on unbounded uniform slopes in larger scale natural or man-made environments.Keywords: Constant inflowdimensional analysisgravity currentsinclined bottomlaboratory experiments AcknowledgmentsThe authors would like to thank Mr L.-C.

AbstractBecause of the complexity of the dam failure mechanism due to earthquakes that occur under the simultaneous influence of hydraulic and seismic forces, a single model has not been obtained so far and this study was conducted to achieve this model. In this paper, dam failure models including both sudden and gradual failure have been investigated using volume of fluid techniques (VOF) to simulate water fluxes, general moving object (GMO) to simulate moving bodies, and the fluid–structure interaction model for finite volume analysis. In order to be sure of the accuracy of the results, before examining the failure mechanisms, the verifications of utilized methods in the case of dam failure were proven using experimental and numerical studies from literature. The Koyna Dam earthquake of magnitude 6.5 (11 December 1967) is investigated as a test case. Comparison of the output discharges due to dam failure in the two failure models reveals that the peak discharge of sudden failure is recorded three times faster than the gradual failure mode. Another achievement that should be mentioned is that although large oscillating periods carry a higher risk of cracking of the dam’s body, smaller periods propagate the resulting cracks more rapidly.Keywords: Flood riskfluid–particle interactionshydraulic modelslakes and reservoirsRANS models Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Data availability statementAll numerical data presented in this study are available from the corresponding author upon reasonable request.
