This thesis is focused on hydraulic resistance over flexible submerged patchy vegetation. The main aim is to investigate different patterns of aquatic vegetation and to analyse the effects of the spatial variability of vegetation patches on hydraulic resistance. A laboratory study in an open-channel flume using patches of artificial grass-like vegetation was carried out in order to reach the project goal. The analysis is presented in the form of Manning's, Chezy's and Darcy's coefficient

Abstract

This thesis is focused on hydraulic resistance over flexible submerged patchy vegetation. The main aim is to investigate different patterns of aquatic vegetation and to analyse the effects of the spatial variability of vegetation patches on hydraulic resistance. A laboratory study in an open-channel flume using patches of artificial grass-like vegetation was carried out in order to reach the project goal. The analysis is presented in the form of Manning's, Chezy's and Darcy's coefficient
