Laboratory experiments of dam-break flows are extensively used in investigations of
geophysical flows involving flood waves, to provide insight into relevant aspects of the …

Accurate and timely information on dam-break waves is essential for risk assessment and
disaster mitigation. The unsteady flow interacting with in-channel obstacles renders …

Images are revolutionising the way we sense and characterise the environment by offering
higher spatial and temporal coverage in ungauged environments at competitive costs. In this …

Image‐based methodologies, such as large scale particle image velocimetry (LSPIV) and
particle tracking velocimetry (PTV), have increased our ability to noninvasively conduct …

Tsunami surges are frequently simulated by dam-break flows over dry beds. The purpose of
this study is to quantitatively investigate the flow kinematics and turbulent characteristics of a …

In flash flood events, predicting the impact loads of rushing water is helpful to detect the
possible and direct damage to the downstream structures. The present study conducted …

Particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) is a promising image-based approach for remote
streamflow measurements in natural environments. However, most PTV approaches require …

This paper presents measurements of velocity profiles obtained from idealized dam-break
experiments and results from numerical simulations of these experiments. Dam-break flows …

Climate change increases the probability of dam-break flooding, making the prediction of
flooding zone and dam-break wave crucial for the evacuation of people in hazardous areas …

The shallow water equations, also known as the Saint Venant equations, are commonly
used to simulate transient free-surface flows including dam-break and levee-breach flows …
