how long such disturbances last and, critically, how they affect local and regional flood risk. This PhD project will explore how riverbeds in large tropical systems respond to the pressures of sand
-
industrial practice relies heavily on empirical optimisation, leading to inefficiencies in energy use and impurity removal. This PhD project proposes to develop a Coupled Computational Fluid Dynamics-Discrete
