During winter, ice cover frequently forms on the water surface of rivers with vegetated channel beds in cold regions. The investigation impacts both and bed vegetation flow structures around bridge abutments is essential for engineers to gain a comprehensive understanding complex interactions occurring such situation. In present study, structure rectangular abutment presence under ice-covered conditions has been studied. Considering different densities by arranging elements square staggered configurations, this study incorporates influence covers roughness, namely smooth rough cover. Key turbulence parameters, including intensity, Reynolds shear stress (RSS), turbulent kinetic energy (TKE), are also examined based laboratory experiments. Results show that shape velocity profiles over changes from an S-shaped curve open condition convex conditions. effects create unpredictable intensity patterns. Under rough-covered condition, there appears larger area negative (RSS) downstream abutment. Turbulent (TKE) substantially lower magnitudes than

River ice formation during the winter period is a common phenomenon for most rivers in northern hemisphere. The combined effect of hydraulic, thermodynamic, and geometric boundary conditions results highly complex system when compared to open channel conditions, particularly regard cover jams. These differences have considerable impact on evolution river morphology, sediment transport, stability hydraulic structures. presence jam an increase roughness, which turn changes velocity shear stress distribution riverbed. present review summarizes current state-of-the-art research ice, including field observation, experimental study, numerical simulation.

Abstract This study investigates the influence of riparian vegetation on energy losses in open-channel flow, focusing channels partially covered by mixed-height patches, a common feature natural rivers and canals. While previous research has primarily focused flow resistance fully vegetated channels, there been limited attention to with unevenly distributed patches. To address this gap, we developed an innovative experimental approach evaluate loss patches under different submergence conditions. The setup involved channel varying heights, mimicking natural, uneven distribution results provided key insights into velocity turbulence intensity these Furthermore, introduced standardized conceptualization method for ratio, specifically concept effective height ( $${h}_{e}$$ ), standardize calculation methods submerged emergent vegetation.Using parameter, derived theoretical formula calculating caused which closely matched data. offers reliable framework hydraulic distribution.

Landslides cause fatalities, widespread damages and economic losses. Quite frequently, they are triggered by rainfall. Many studies have investigated the relationships between rainfall characteristics landslide events. This paper reviews two main approaches, physical hydrological, for modelling such relationships. In approach, influence of on slope stability is commonly analysed in terms groundwater infiltration, pore pressure changes balance shear stresses resistances, therefore a considerable amount hydrogeological, morphological geotechnical data required. hydrological statistical-probabilistic study series dates occurrence movements instead carried out.
