Abstract: The formation of cluster structures in gravel bed streams is a naturally occurring process that characterizes the response of sediment to the erosive power of flowing water. Cluster structures are formed when two or more ...

Abstract: Incipient motion criteria based solely on time-averaged bed shear stress may underpredict sediment transport. The focus of this study is on the stochastic aspect of the problem of incipient motion. Specifically, the role ...

Abstract: This research aims to advance current knowledge on cluster formation and evolution by tackling some of the aspects associated with cluster microtopography and the effects of clusters on bedload transport. The specific ...

Abstract: In this study, the characteristics of near-bed turbulence were experimentally investigated for three distinct roughness regimes, namely (1) isolated; (2) wake interference; and (3) skimming. Spherical particles of the same ...

Abstract: Washington State University, by virtue of the presence of the Albrook Hydraulics Laboratory, maintains several courses devoted to hydraulic engineering. The evolution of hydraulics offerings reflects the needs of the day. ...
