Experiments were carried out at the different values of densimetric Froude number that ranges was 3.9 to 6.6, a range of tailwater condition was 4 to 15 times the dimensions of the jet and for the three same cross-section nozzle with different dimensionless axial distance from the channel wall in ranges of 0.5 to 17.3. At first in this paper the scour mechanism caused by the wall jets was described. The effect of jet distance to the channel side wall was also investigated. The results of the paper verified with the previous studies. Laboratory observations and results show that the nozzle distance from the channel side wall caused the jet deviation towards the near wall and asymmetric in flow regimes. The factors has significant influence on scour due to jets as the maximum scour depth increased by decreasing of the distance of the nozzle to the side wall. Also in most cases the scour longitudinal parameters decreases by increasing the distance of the nozzle to the side wall. It was found that tailwater depth has an influence on scour longitudinal parameters. According to the results it can be note that the effect of jet location on scour is significant and can be considered as an effective parameter in scour cause by wall jets.The result of 40 experiments in the field of scouring by three dimensional wall jets were conducted in this paper.

The present study deals with the logarithmic layer of double-averaged (in time and space) streamwise velocity profiles in non-uniform flows, decelerating flow, in coarse-bed Rivers. The streamwise velocity profiles were obtained from field measurements conducted in the Haraz and Rostam Abad Rivers. Velocity measurements were collected at 200 Hz and 120 seconds by using ADV. Both riverbeds composed of coarse gravel and cobble, with relative submergences ( ) from 4.4 to 10.4. Due to the limit application of the double-averaging method in Iranian Rivers, the validity of this method was investigated by using the logarithmic law and the boundary layer characteristic method. From the observations, the flow may be divided into two different layers: the inner layer (logarithmic layer) and the outer layer. In the inner layer ( ) the double-averaged velocity profiles confirmed the logarithmic law, however, the velocity data deviated from the logarithmic law in the outer region without a particular pattern. The results of this study can help a better estimation of hydraulic parameters in coarse-bed streams, decreasing the cost of hydraulic plans in rivers.A clear understanding of the interaction of bed-form and flow characteristics in natural streams is essential for a variety of ecological and river engineering projects such as river rehabilitation, pollution control, and stable channel design.

However, a few researches have been reported for this issue in literature. Flow within and just above vegetation behaves similar to mixing layer rather than the boundary layer. This study applies the mixing layer theory to quantify the interaction between flow and submerged vegetation patch, emphasizing the effect of developing flow over small patches in the canonical mixing layer theory. Accordingly, it is essential to combine a canonical mixing layer model and modified equations to quantify evolving area along the patch. Field experiments were conducted over vegetation patch with three different densities in Beheshtabad cobble-bed River located in Chaharmahal-Bakhtiari province. The results reveal that there are reasonable agreement between the measured values of velocity and Reynolds stress profiles and the estimated ones by evolving mixing layer equations. However, the spreading coefficient of this model decreases by increasing the canopy density thanks to the limitation of vertical development of eddies. Quadrant analysis over vegetation patch shows the dominate event under the crest of canopy is “ejection” and over it is “sweep”.

In all tests, the dense fluid was assumed to be of the salt type with a density of 20 g/lit. Two series of tests were performed using rough surfaces with and without obstacle. In total, 56 tests were conducted. The results showed that in all of the tested sloped, for the zigzag pattern, the highest control for the head of the dense current occurred at a density of 30%; while this density value was 10% for the parallel pattern. Moreover, using an obstacle in addition to roughness increased the control of the density current head. The mean control percentage in the tested slopes was 97% for the zigzag pattern at a density of 30% compared to the mode without roughness and with a zero percent slope; however this mean control percentage increased to 163% by implementing an obstacle.

In the present study, the behavior of unconfined coastal aquifer to instantaneous sea level rise and freshwater head decline is investigated by physical and mathematical dispersive modellings. Three laboratory models have been conducted in a sand tank and salt wedge shape has been photographed over time. Salt wedge toe position, area of transition zone and volume of intruded seawater are measured for this purpose. The numerical results are in good agreement with experimental observations. The outputs derived by both modellings indicate that the instantaneous rise of head in sea boundary or significant decline of freshwater head in landside deforms the wedge shape of saline water, so that the seawater encroachment velocity at its tip will be faster than other regions. Moreover, establishment of an inverse hydraulic gradient (hydraulic gradient from sea to land) causes significant seawater delivery from sea into the aquifer. As a result, the salt wedge can even be stretched up to land boundary. Results of dispersive simulations demonstrate that when the velocity of saline water rises inside the aquifer, the advection role will be highlighted rather than dispersion. However, the longitudinal and transverse dispersivity will also increase and that consequently will widen the transition zone. Nevertheless, the increase rate of saline water volume has been achieved much higher than the growth rate of toe position and transition zone area.Sea level rise and groundwater extrapolation lead to freshwater head changes at boundaries of coastal aquifers and causes further intrusion of seawater into aquifers.

Daily river’s discharges during 15 years (2001-2015) have been employed in the reach routing. Firstly, the numbers of the numerator and denominator terms have been obtained. These parameters are giving the numbers of the subzones in every river reach and also the conditions of the connections (series or parallel). The results of the present study revealed only one sub reach for every river. Therefore, any more analysis of the connection conditions has not been done. After that, the values of the transfer function’s coefficients have been derived using micro CAPTAIN toolbox. The statistical parameters of the mentioned toolbox as ((YIC), (Rt2), and (EVN) for the reaches of the DASHBAND BOUKAN-BOUKAN bridge, ALASAGGAL-SAFAKHANEH, and GESHLAGH bridge- ANIAN bridge have been determined as triple sets of (-5.241, 0.879, -10.86), (-3.954, 0.903, -9.43), and (-2.792, 0.920, -8.139) respectively. The outcomes exhibited a right corresponding between the theoretical graphs, obtained with the transfer function, and observed discharges. The transfer function method is more straightforward rather than the other accurate methods of flood routing like fully saint venant equations. Therefore, it can be used as an efficient method in the flood routing in the river reaches.Application of simple and accurate routing models in the flood warning systems increases the capabilities of them. In the present study, it was attempted to fulfil the flood routing using ADZ model and its discrete time form which is named transfer function in the three river reaches, located between six hydrometric stations along the ZARINE and SIMINEH streams.
