About Dr Bahar Sm

Over last 28 years, I have been involved and worked with public, private and academic industries in Coastal Engineering, Fluvial Geomorphology & Water Resources Engineering. As a Fluvial Geomorphologist and Coastal Engineer, I have done research on fluvial process, hydrodynamic, sediment transport, river bank erosion, and meander belt and channel migration.Presentation of my Innovative Technique for Natural Channel Design, Channel Restoration and Stream Stabilization at the TRIECA conference on March 25, 2015.http://www.trieca.com/dotAsset/204404.pdf
