A generalized probabilistic model is developed in this study to predict sediment entrainment under the incipient motion, rolling, and pickup modes. A novelty of the proposed model is that it incorporates in its formul...
A grey\|system theory based GM(1,1) model is used to predict the bed concentration of suspended sediment using the limited concentration measurements above the channel bed. The performance of the proposed method is ev...
Motivated by the need to assess the environmental impact of navigation in the upper Mississippi River basin. a method was developed for computing sediment.entrainment in unsteady flows similar to the flows induced by ...
