Entropy approach for 2D velocity distribution in open-channel flow
(2011-11-21)
In this paper, considering time-averaged velocity as a random variable, two-dimensional (2D) velocity distributions in open-channel flow have been derived based on the Shannon entropy concept and the principle of maximum ...
Derivation of 2D Power-Law Velocity Distribution Using Entropy Theory
(2013)
The one-dimensional (1D) power law velocity distribution, commonly used for computing velocities in open channel flow, has been derived empirically. However, a multitude of problems, such as scour around bridge piers, ...
