Abstract: Recent pipeline experiments performed in Saskatchewan show the existence of a shear layer in which the solids concentration decreases linearly with height. This finding has already been used to calculate the velocity ...

Abstract: When the dimensionless shear stress

Abstract: Analysis demonstrates, and experiments confirm that the frictional behavior of mobile beds at high shear stress is inherently different from either of the two classical cases—smooth wall and rough wall. For those two cases, ...

Abstract: This paper reports the results of experiments on particle-water flow over plane-topped stationary beds. The particles used were silica sands having

Abstract: For rivers in flood and beaches under wave attack, the shear stress at the top of the stationary granular bed can set up a sheared layer of contact‐load (bed‐load) particles. This type of motion also occurs in pressurized ...

Abstract: Experiments involving bed forms have usually been carried out in flumes, but in the present work a pressurized-conduit system was found to be appropriate for investigating sediment motion at high shear stress. The bed ...
