Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsExperimental Investigation of Cluster Bed-Form Formation Over Uniform SedimentMasoud Karbasi, Mohammad H. Omid, Javad FarhoudiProblem statement: Cluster microforms are a type of small scale bed-form found in the surface layer of some gravel bed rivers. These bed-forms are comprised of discrete, organized groupings of particles that sit above the average elevation of the surrounding bed. As part of the structural organization of the bed, clusters are believed to impact the local dynamics of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,874 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTransverse Velocity, Transverse Boundary Shear Stress and Flow Deviation in Meandering Open ChannelsYoussef Ismail HafezThis study presents a novel approach for characterizing the mechanics of flow in mildly meandering open channels, specifically focusing on the development of a new vertical distribution equation for transverse velocity. Unlike existing equations in the literature that rely on complex logarithmic or integral forms or infinite series forms, which are impractical for hydraulic engineers, the proposed equation employs ordinary … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 25 Jul 2024 · 5,058 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Development of Ni/Dolomite Catalyst in Simultaneous Biomass Gasification and Reforming in Fluidized BedAnawat Ketcong, Tharapong Vitidsant, Kaoru FujimotoSimultaneous gasification and steam reforming of the biomass on Ni/dolomite catalyst in fluidized bed reactor were studied in the gaseous production in the one stage reactor. Problem statement: The parameters such as temperature, steam flow rate, biomass feed rate, gas flow rate for fluidization, oxygen flow rate and catalyst types were studied to produce the high gaseous products including tar … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,067 accessesView PDF Cite
