The Bradshaw model aims to show how different characteristics of a river change from the source to the mouth in a simplistic method that can easily be understood (greenfield geography‚ 2012). A geographical model is “an attempt to understand natures is high complexity. Therefore geographers try to develop simplified models of it” (Waugh‚ D. 2009). The model shows a series of triangles and each one represents a different fluvial characteristic. On the left is the source and on the right is the mouth

bridge on the changes of river morphology are investigated by the field data as well as by numerical computations using a 2-D depth integrated water and sediment flow model. The Jamuna bridge was constructed on 1998‚ and reduced the river flood width from 14.00 km to 4.8 km. Data analyses suggest that rapid morphological changes in terms of sediment deposition and side bank erosion occur in the upstream reach of the bridge site after its construction.
