Flow structures in evolving scour holes caused by 2-D plunging jets and wall jets

The present study used Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) to measure the flow structures in evolving scour holes caused by two types of 2-D jet: a 2-D plunging jet downstream of a weir and a 2-D wall jet beneath a sluice gate with an apron. Probably for the first time, the interesting jet-flipping...
