High‐Fidelity Numerical Study of the Effect of Wing Dam Fields on Flood Stage in Rivers

Abstract Trains of wing dams (spur dikes) are used in river engineering for navigation in many rivers, such as the Mississippi River. These structures increase water level due to added resistance, and thus increase flood stage. The redistribution of bed sediment associated with constriction scour in...
