Talmon, A.M. (author)Flow equations for application in river bends are derived. Coordinate transformations are achieved by tensor calculus. The momentum equations are formulated in a cylindrical coordinate system and in a cylindrical bed-following coordinate system. The depth-averaged momentum equations in a cylindrical bed-following coordinate system are derived....report 1992

De Vriend, H.J. (author)The relationship between streamline curvature and bed resistance in shallow water flow with little side constraint, as derived in 1970 by H.J. Schoemaker, is reconsidered. Schoemaker concluded that the bed resistance causes the curvature of a free streamline to grow exponentially with the distance along this streamline, thus giving rise to a...report 1979

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...report 1974

Bijker, E.W. (author)11th Conference on Coastal Engineering in London 1968, the author presented a method for computing the littoral drift starting from the longshore current velocity as this is generated by the waves and with the assumption that the material is stirred up by the waves. In this paper measurements in a model basin are described by which the procedure...report 1971
