Velocity components at a vicinity of a pier with an upstream FDS under different submergence ratio were measured.
The measurements were made with a single pier case, and a single pier with the FDS at the upstream with H/y = 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and >1. The streamwise (u) and vertical (w) velocity components were determined from analysis of the PIV images collected during the individual experiments. Further analyses were carried out by a developed code in MATLAB and the results were stored in txt files. The outcomes include:
Normalised Streamwise Velocity Component (u/V)
Normalised Vertical Velocity Component (w/V)
Normalised Turbulence Intensity Components (TIu/V and TIw/V)
Normalised Turbulent Kinetic Energy (TKE/V2)
Normalised Reynolds Shear Stress (u^' w^' ) / V^2
