Bed-levelling experiments with suspended load

Talmon, A.M. (author), De Graaff, J. (author)

Bed-levelling experiments are conducted in a straight laboratory channel. The experiments involve a significant fraction of suspended sediment transport. The purpose of the experiments is to provide data for modelling of the direction of sediment transport on a transverse sloping alluvial river bed, specifically in presence of suspended sediment...

In search of a better sediment mixing coefficient model

Voorendt, M. (author), Van de Graaf, J. (author)

Results of sediment transport calculations are often necessary in solving practical coastal engineering problems. (Sediment transport due to waves and currents). Many transport formulae have been proposed in literature in the past. Selection of the proper one while solving a particular problem, is a difficult task for a coastal engineer. In...

Technical note for sediment transport rate: Analysis of delta flume data and calculations

Zhang, C.K. (author)

Data analysis of Delta flume observations and calculationsThe objective of the present study is to analyse the measurement data of profiles and velocity moments, to derive the measured cross-shore sediment transport rates from the profile records and to compare the observed transport rates with the results from several existing prediction models...

Sediment discharge measurement and calculation: Techniques for use at river gauging stations

Bolton, P. (author)

The terms 'wash load', 'suspended bed material load' and 'bed load' are not clearly defined but, if applied with care, provide a useful basis for sub-dividing the total discharge of sediment in a river for the purpose of measurement. The accuracy with which each of the three types of sediment transport must be measured will depend on their...

Budget of littoral sands in the vicinity of Point Arguello, California

Bowen, A.J. (author), Inman, D.L. (author)

This report shows the results of a detailed analysis of the various littoral processes which affect the California Coast between Pismo Beach and Santa Barbara. The method involves the concept of a sand budget based on the transport rates of all significant littoral processes. Each process is examined to assess the sedimentary contributions ...

Shear-Stress and Sediment Distribution in a Meander Bend

Hooke, R.L.B. (author)

A one-meter wide, meandering flume with movable sand bed was utilized in these experiments. Uniform flow was established at discharges of 20, 35, and 50 l/sec. Velocities near the bed, the distribution of sediment in transport, bed geometry, and strength of secondary flow were determined at each discharge . Bed shear stress was assumed to be...

Laboratory observations and calculations of the depth averaged flow patterns in a square harbor on a tidal river

Langendoen, E.J. (author)

Many harbors in the world suffer from siltation in their basins and in many cases removal of the deposited sediment leads to high costs. This siltation results from a net transport of sediment into the harbor caused by the water motion in the harbor entrance. The water motion is very complex and of a three-dimensional nature. Three main...

The probabilistic design method of a cover layer of pipe line under the horizontal bottom is described. By assuming that the water velocity at the bottom is Rayleigh distributed, probability of bottom shear stress was derived. With a combination of the probability function of bottom shear and a simple sediment transport formula given by Madsen...

An analysis of longshore currents and associated sediment transport in the surf zone

Ostendorf, D.W. (author), Madsen, O.S. (author)

Two momentum based longshore current models and a preliminary longshore sediment transport model are derived, calibrated and tested in the present investigation. The Linear Longshore Current Model predicts the relatively small longshore current induced by monochromatic, two dimensional, gravity waves of finite height and near normal incidence...
