    Abstract: In this study, the impact of vegetation on the characteristics of the flow in an inclined open channel is studied experimentally using a Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV). This optical method of fluid visualization is used to obtain in-stantaneous velocity measurements related properties in the fluids. For the simulation of vegetated bed, flexible v... Show More
