Application of the LANS-alpha Model to Gravity Currents
(University of Waterloo, 2019-10-21)This thesis aims to investigate how HERCULES performs when running a lock-exchange gravity current case. The LANS-alpha model with stratification is also tested as a subgrid model in HERCULES using the same gravity current ... -
Numerical simulations of convection and gravity currents near the temperature of maximum density
(University of Waterloo, 2022-08-09)Recently, the dynamics of flows in cold freshwater (temperatures around the temperature of maximum density, 3.98 oC) has garnered much interest in the environmental fluid dynamics community. From a dynamical perspective, ... -
Simulating Wintertime Lake Dynamics Using the MITgcm Ice Model
(University of Waterloo, 2020-09-23)Lake Erie is an important source of drinking water, a location for recreational activities and a haven for unique ecosystems (e.g. Point Pelee). Recent research has suggested that some wintertime processes are significantly ...
