Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Hydraulic engineering methods can be applied to a wide range of research problems, including coastal engineering, river engineering, and lake modeling. This Special Issue deals with numerical, field, and laboratory studies related to the above-mentioned topics. Sediment transport, waves, pollutant fate and transport, hydraulic structures, coastal structures, coastal erosion, coastal flow simulation, dam breach analysis, mine water management, stream restoration and lake modeling are included in this Special Issue.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Water is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

This research aims to develop an efficient and accurate model for simulating tuned liquid dampers (TLDs) with sloped beds. The model, based on nonlinear shallow water equations, is enhanced by introducing new terms tailored to each specific case. It employs the central upwind method and Minmod limiter functions for flux and interface variable assessment, ensuring both high accuracy and reasonable computational cost. While acceleration, slope, and dissipation are treated as explicit sources, an implicit scheme is utilized for dispersion discretization to enhance the model’s stability, resulting in matrix equations. Time discretization uses the fourth-order Runge–Kutta scheme for precision. The performance of the model has been evaluated using several test cases including dam-breaks on flat and inclined beds and run-up and run-down simulations over parabolic beds, which are relevant to sloshing in tanks with sloped beds. It accurately predicts phenomena such as asymmetric sloshing waves, especially in sloped beds, where pronounced waves occur. Dispersion and dissipation terms are crucial for capturing these effects and maintaining stable wave patterns. An initial perturbation method assesses the tank’s natural period and numerical diffusion. Furthermore, the model integrates with a single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system to create a TLD model, demonstrating enhanced damping effects with sloped beds. Full article
