Research Abstract |
The mechanisms of flow structures and sediment transport around spur-dikes were studied in order to extend our knowledge of environmental applications of spur-dike installations. By applying image-analysis methods to experimental results, three-dimensional structures of flow and sediment transport were clarified. The results showed that the wake flow behind permeable dikes and the over-flow on submerged spur-dikes play important roles on sediment suspension. A numerical model of suspended sediment transport that can reproduce sediment concentration profile around permeable dikes was then developed based on the experimental results.
