A well calibrated flow model
does not necessarily accurately
predict morphologic change

Flow calibration: Summary
• 2D and 3D models are well calibrated based on water surface elevations and velocity
• 3D flow model is marginally better than 2D
![Page 11: Mechanics and modeling of flow, sediment transport, and morphologic change in riverine lateral separation zones Brandy Logan, Jonathan Nelson, Rich McDonald,](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56649f415503460f94c608a0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Morphodynamic modeling
• Input– HFE Hydrograph– Suspended sediment concentration– Sediment thickness on the bed– Initial bed grain size distribution
• Output– Evolution of bed through time– Suspended sediment concentration– Composition of bed

Conclusions:
• 2D and 3D models produce well calibrated flow solutions• 2D and 3D morphodynamic predictions are different• Both over predict deposition in the eddy• Erosional processes such as slumping are not accounted
for by the models
