Balancing Operators Risk Averseness in Model Predictive Control for Real-time Reservoir Flood Control

Ja-Ho Koo, Edo Abraham, Andreja Jonoski +1

Model Predictive Control (MPC) is an optimal control strategy suited for flood control of water resources infrastructure. Despite many studies on reservoir flood control and their…

Linking turbulent waves and bubble diffusion in self-aerated open-channel flows: Two-state air concentration

Matthias Kramer, Daniel Valero

High Froude-number flows become self-aerated when the destabilizing effect of turbulence overcomes gravity and surface tension forces. Traditionally, the resulting air concentratio…

Microplastic and natural sediment in bed load saltation: material does not dictate the fate

James Lofty, Daniel Valero, Catherine A. M. E. Wilson +2

Microplastic (MP) pollution is a well document threat to our aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, however, the mechanisms by which MPs are transported in river flows are still unkno…

Unsteady shallow meandering flows in rectangular reservoirs: A modal analysis of URANS modelling

Daniel Valero, Daniel B. Bung, Sebastien Erpicum +2

Shallow flows are common in natural and human-made environments. Even for simple rectangular shallow reservoirs, recent laboratory experiments show that the developing flow fields…

Benchmarking of Numerical Models for Wave Overtopping at Dikes with Shallow Mildly Sloping Foreshores: Accuracy versus Speed

Christopher Lashley, Barbara Zanuttigh, Jeremy Bricker +5

To accurately predict the consequences of nearshore waves, coastal engineers often employ numerical models. A variety of these models, broadly classified as either phase-resolving…
