The relation between grain-size distribution of the bed and in suspension was critically examined under a uniform flow velocity of 50 cm/s over two beds: one of mainly fine sands and the other of medium sands. Two sec...
In this study the effects of the different rough porous beds in an open inclined channel are studied experimentally for impermeable and permeable porous bed. For the simulation of porous bed two dif- ferent types of p...
The Reynolds stress and bed shear stress are important parameters in fluvial hydraulics. Steady-nonuniform flow in open channels with streamwise sloping beds having upward seepage through loose beds is theoretically a...
This paper presents an experimental investigation on incipient motion of non-cohesive uniform sediment under a steady-uniform stream flow on generalized sloping fluvial beds (combined lateral and stream-wise slope). T...
Roughness is measured using a new approach, whereby the relative roughness of the river bed is obtained instead of the conventional grain size distribution. The K3 roughness coefficient allows an accurate description ...
This paper describes the experiences obtained in the development, improvement and verification of a three dimensional numerical model that simulates free surface flows with sediment transport. Emphasis is given to t...
Flume studies were carried out at the Theodor Rehbock Laboratory, to examine the Processes of step POOl formation and the stability of mountain river beds. The study was conducted in a 20 cm wide tilting flume at slop...
