Abstract:Canopies formed by flexible aquatic plants constitute an important element in river hydraulics as they determine resistance, resilience towards erosion, transport of nutrients and pollutants, and provide the habitat of other species. Due to their flexibility they undergo reconfiguration and closely interact with the surrounding flow. This fluid-structure-coupling poses a considerable challenge to detailed numerical modelling. In the present contribution a recently developed own method is presented capable of n… Show more
