Spatial and temporal patterns in three‐dimensional flow structure are linked to channel processes and morphology in many environments. However, there is not yet an understanding of how the flow structure is influenced by channelized and gradually distributed lateral outflows that are often prevalent in river deltas. This study presents an analysis...
Plain Language Summary
A river bifurcation is where a river splits into two branches. Water and sediment from the upstream channel are divided between the bifurcation's downstream branches. This division is important for flood risk, freshwater supply, and navigation. Here we investigate the flow division and related changes in bed level and bed sur...
Tipping occurs when a critical point is reached, beyond which a perturbation leads to persistent system change. Here, we present observational indications demonstrating presently ongoing noise‐tipping of a real‐world system. Noise in a river system is associated with the changing flow rate. In particular, we consider the upper Rhine River delta, wh...
Characterization of flow structures in the neighborhood of Pannerdense Kop bifurcation, Netherlands.
Spatial and temporal patterns in three-dimensional flow structure have been linked to channel processes and morphology in many environments, including river meander bends, confluences-diffluences, and bedrock canyons. However, there is not yet an understanding of how channelized and gradually distributed lateral outflows that are often prevalent in...
We are currently looking at the characteristics of secondary flow structures at deltaic distributary systems. We believe that the flow structure and levee morphology together at a delta can provide valuable insight into the sediment transport process from the distributary channels to interdistributary islands. The research leads to a hypothesis tha...
Technological advancements are happening in the hospitals. Normally, doctor and nurses monitor IV fluid feed of a patient. They may forget or can't monitor it properly which may lead to severe problems for patient. Design and fabrication of automatic IV fluid feed system will be helpful in this regard. The main Objective of this project is to devel...
The energy dissipated due to the movement of fluid for the rotation of a propeller is somewhat wasted. A novel device is developed to harness this energy installing aturbine with zero pitch behind the ship propeller. Experiments are conducted with turbine having various radii and numbers of blades. The distance of the turbine from the ship propelle...
