Experiments on turbulence and near bank vorticities in an open channel sharp bend

Turbulence has a significant influence on fluvial processes. Especially in the sharp bends of geometrically complex natural streams, the interaction of turbulence and flow three-dimensionalities is considerable. Here, generation and evolution of streamwise vorticity in an open channel bend is assess...
