Abstract: Form resistance, which includes pressure drag on bed forms and pressure and viscous drag on bed particles in transport, is shown to be a major component of hydraulic roughness in steady, quasi‐uniform, two‐dimensional ...

Abstract: Bed‐load transport capacity in braided gravel‐bed rivers varies as hydraulic geometry changes downstream. Differences in capacity lead to variations in bed‐material storage as a consequence of bed‐load transport during ...

Abstract: The influence of channel width on bedload capacity in river reaches of given slope, water discharge, and channel‐bed material is examined. The view that transport capacity is a decreasing function of width is shown to be ...
