Abstract: Sediment concentration distribution and the basic probability of sediment movement near the channel bed are two of the most important and fundamental issues in the study of sediments. Based on statistical analysis and ...

Abstract: This paper deals with the mechanical characteristics of saltation of bed-load transport in flowing water. Experiments have been carried out by means of high-speed photography and advanced data-processing techniques. Taking ...

Abstract: This paper deals with the stochastic characteristics of the saltation of bed-load transport. The trajectories of particles with different specific gravity are measured by high-speed photographic technique, and the experiments ...
