Gravity current energetics and particle suspension
Edward W. G. Skevington, Robert M. Dorrell
Gravity currents are a ubiquitous density driven flow occurring in both the natural environment and in industry. They include: seafloor turbidity currents, primary vectors of sedim…
Inadequacy of fluvial energetics for describing gravity current autosuspension
Sojiro Fukuda, Marijke G. W. de Vet, Edward W. G. Skevington +7
"Consider the [turbidity] current as ... a river" R. A. Bagnold (1962); the foundation of contemporary deep marine sedimentology. Gravity currents, such as sediment-laden turbidity…
The unsteady overtopping of barriers by gravity currents and dam-break flows
Edward W. G. Skevington, Andrew J. Hogg
The collision of a gravitationally-driven horizontal current with a barrier following release from a confining lock is investigated using a shallow water model of the motion, toget…
Self-stratifying turbidity currents
Edward W. G. Skevington, Robert M. Dorrell
Turbidity currents, seafloor flows driven by the excess density of suspended particles, are key conveyors of sediment, nutrient, and pollutant from the continental margins to deep…
A well-balanced reconstruction with bounded velocities for the shallow water equations by convex combination
Edward W. G. Skevington
Finite volume schemes for hyperbolic balance laws require a piecewise polynomial reconstruction of the cell averaged values, and a reconstruction is termed `well-balanced' if it is…
The implementation of a broad class of boundary conditions for non-linear hyperbolic systems
Edward W. G. Skevington
We propose methods that augment existing numerical schemes for the simulation of hyperbolic balance laws with Dirichlet boundary conditions to allow for the simulation of a broad c…
A Well Balanced Reconstruction with Bounded Velocities and Low-Oscillation Slow Shocks for the Shallow Water Equations
Edward W. G. Skevington
Many numerical schemes for hyperbolic systems require a piecewise polynomial reconstruction of the cell averaged values, and to simulate perturbed steady states accurately we requi…
Wetting Fronts in Porous Media
Edward W. G. Skevington
The dynamics of the wetting front are considered during the imbibition of a fluid into a porous substrate through a circular drawing area. A mathematical model of this process, ass…
