Investigation of New Tsallis-Based Equation to Predict Shear Stress Distribution in Circular and Trapezoidal Channels

In this study, the entropy concept is employed to estimate the shear stress distribution in a circular channel with flat bed and trapezoidal channel. Using the principle of maximum entropy, the shear stress distribution is derived by maximizing the Tsallis entropy by assuming averaged shear stress a...
