Abstract: Simulation of river bedform by large eddy simulation (LES), and sediment as spherical particles. Related papers are: doi: 10.1002/wrcr.20457 doi: 10.1002/wrcr.20303 doi: 10.1029/2012WR011911
Theory
The flow of water in rivers over loose sediments can lead to self organizing patterns, such as the ripples presented in this simulation.
