Experimental Assessment of a 2-D Entropy-Based Model for Velocity Distribution in Open Channel Flow

Velocity distribution in an open channel flow can be very useful to model many hydraulic phenomena. Among the others, several 1D models based on the concept of entropy are available in the literature, which allow estimating the velocity distribution by measuring velocities only in a few points. Neve...
