Effects of tributary floodplain on confluence hydrodynamics

Confluences are common components of river networks and are characterized by a highly complex flow structure. Two confluence geometries, without and with the floodplain in the tributary, were comparatively investigated to highlight the effects of floodplain on confluence hydrodynamics. The three-dim...
