A Contribution to the Theory of Spreading of Liquid-Containing Ejections Over a Horizontal Surface

  • Published:
Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

Based on the shallow water theory, the problem on radial spreading of incompressible liquid over a horizontal surface with account for the presence of vegetation has been studied. Some exact as well as approximate analytical solutions have been obtained that describe various cases, stages, and possible regimes of the process of spreading. A comparison of the results obtained with experimental data is made.
