Abstract:Although the papers in this issue have no core theme, they cover some interesting applications over a range of topics.Manning's empirical equation has been used for over 100 years to describe the mean velocity in open channels. The form of the equation raises questions such as 'why does the velocity depend on the hydraulic radius?' and 'why is the power two-thirds?' The first paper, by Horritt and Wright (2013), describes the use of a mixing length model for estimating channel conveyance and shows that this si… Show more
