Abstract
  Water supply from rivers is accomplished with flow diversion through an intake structure. A lateral intake like bifurcation is the simplest method to withdraw water. However, flow at a channel bifurcation is turbulent, highly three-dimensional (3D) and so has many complex features. This paper reports ...  Read More
