Impact of small hydropower plants on physicochemical and biotic environments in flatland riverbeds of Lithuania
TL;DR: In this article, the impact of a small hydropower plant (SHP) on river water quality and macroinvertebrates has been investigated in 5 Lithuanian rivers and involved 17 dams of which ten are in a sequence in the same river system.

Sediment transport patterns at Trafalgar offshore windfarm
Giovanni Besio,Miguel A. Losada +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple analytical model of wave propagation has been developed in order to study the potential sediment transport patterns due to the action of currents and waves in the neighborhood of cylindrical structures as well inside a group of these structures.
Sand-mud erosion from a soil mechanical perspective
TL;DR: In this paper, a generic formulation for surface erosion of sand-mud mixtures based on a geotechnical approach was derived and validated, and two new measuring techniques were developed which enable the in-situ characterization of sedimentological and soil mechanical properties.

Formation of rhythmic sorted bed forms on the continental shelf: an idealised model
TL;DR: In this article, an idealised model is presented to study the formation of sorted bed forms generated by a wind-driven along-shore current, which employs a linear stability analysis to describe the time development of perturbations of both bottom composition and bed elevation.
On the Development and Application of Hybrid Numerical Models in Nonlinear Free Surface Hydrodynamics
TL;DR: In this article, a hybrid numerical model based on Fully Nonlinear Potential Flow (FNPF) and Navier-Stokes (NS) is used to simulate free surface, i.e., wave, hydrodynamics, wave-structure interactions, wave breaking and nearshore transformation, and wave-induced sediment transport.
