    Analytical Approach to Calculate Rate of Bank Erosion

    . Journal of Hydraulic Engineering, 131(11), 980-990. doi:10.1061/(asce)0733-9429(2005)131:11(980)

    Bank erosion consists of two processes: basal erosion due to fluvial hydraulic force and bank failure under the influence of gravity. Because bank resistance force varies with the degree of saturation of bank material, the probability of bank failure is the probability of the driving force of bank failure being greater than the bank resistance force. The degree of saturation of bank material increases with river stage; therefore, the frequency of bank failure is correlated to the frequency of flooding. Consequently, the rate of bank erosion is due to both basal erosion and bank failure, and bank failure is a probabilistic phenomenon. In this paper, for cohesive bank material experiencing planar bank failure, a deterministic approach was adopted for basal erosion analysis, whereas the probability of bank failure was included in the analysis of bank failure. A method for calculating the rate of bank erosion was derived that integrates both basal erosion and bank failure processes, and accounts for the effects of hydraulic force, bank geometry, bank material properties, and probability of bank failure.

    Abstract: In this paper, shear stress on the bed of sine-generated channels is studied by using a three dimensional hydrodynamic model (CCHE3D). Predictions of the shear stress distribution from CCHE3D are compared with experimental data measured in sine-generated curved channels. Both the simulation and the measurement show that the distribution pattern of bed shear stress is strongly affected by channel sinuosity, while the magnitude of bed shear stress is a function of channel sinuosity and bed relative roughness.

    Abstract: Bank erosion happens frequently in alluvial channels, which may cause serious economic and environmental problems, such as land loss, channel sedimentation and property damage. Due to its complexity, even though extensive research has been done in the past, it is still difficult to predict bank erosion. Therefore, a two dimensional numerical model has been developed to simulate the bank erosion processes by using computer. The model is based on a hydrodynamic model CCHE2D developed in the Center for Computational Hydroscience and Engineering, the University of Mississippi. In CCHE2D, depth averaged Navier-Stokes equations were solved by finite element method to obtain the depth averaged flow properties. Boundary shear stress is calculated by the flow model. From the boundary shear stress, bed load transport rate is computed. Assuming bed load only, the sediment continuity equation is solved numerically. Bank erosion is then related with the vertical erosion at the bank toe. The model has been validated against a physical experiment conducted by Ikeda (1981), and good agreements are observed.

    More info
    Abstract: Experiments were conducted to investigate the bed form and flow resistance of the light-weight sediment in an open channel flow. Three different synthetic materials with specific gravity 1.055, 1.46 and with uniform sizes D50 1.25mm, 1.05mm, 1.40mm were used. Some conclusions were obtained from experimental results and the data of other reliable references. The conclusions indicate that the grain resistance is greatly affected by D50, and the bed form resistance is the function of the downstream slope and height of dune As well as natural sand, Y is not only the function of Y', but also affected by the relative roughness Rb/D50 and the size of used sediment.
