Linear and Nonlinear Bar-Bend Interaction in Rivers

这项研究是一项理论和实验相结合的工作，旨在解决河道不稳定性的形成问题。作为辫状河和曲流河的前兆，交替沉积坝的形成需要建立一个统一的非线性模型。相关试验将在倾斜的泥沙水槽中进行，观测主要是目视观测。这项研究涉及集中于关键位置和补救措施的河流控制技术的潜力，与目前处理所有堤岸的一般稳定技术形成对比。

This research is a combination of theoretical and experimental work addressing the formation of instabilities in river channels. A unified non-linear model is to be constructed for the formation of alternating sediment bars as precursors to braiding and meandering. Relevant experiments are to conducted in a tilting sediment flume, with the observations primarily visual. This research relates to the potential for river control techniques concentrating on the key locations and remedies, in contrast to the present general stabilization techniques treating all of the banks.
