Abstract

The main objective of this project is to study of plan form development and soil erosion and deposition around an island by conducting experiments in a mobile riverbed setup. Field measurements of velocity and turbulence vectors have carried out in this setup at NIT Durgapur. Directional current measurement (DCM) instrument and acoustic Doppler velocity (ADV) meters were used for the field measurements of velocity and turbulence particularly in the interface region between main channel and floodplain. The values of local shear velocity and roughness length for the reach under study were calculated using measured velocity data.
