Abstract: The present paper studies the two-dimensional unsteady suspended sediment transport problem through an open channel turbulent flow that carries large amounts of sediments. Presence of large amounts of sediments causes ...

Abstract: Sediment concentration in open channels is fundamental to modeling sediment and pollutant transport. This study employs Renyi entropy for deriving the vertical distribution of suspended sediment concentration in open-channel ...

Abstract: In the study of mechanics of sediment transport, settling velocity is one of the important parameters because it is needed to solve the governing equations. It has been established that the presence of particles in the ...

Abstract: This study investigates the vertical profile of streamwise (longitudinal) velocity in an unsteady and nonuniform open-channel turbulent flow. In contrast to the previous works, a direct derivation for velocity distribution ...

Abstract: The present study aims to develop a steady two-dimensional suspended sediment transport model in an open channel for turbulent flow-carrying sediments. In such a flow, if sediment concentration is high, hindered settling ...

Abstract: A model on one-dimensional unsteady suspended sediment transport has been developed in this study by including the effect of hindered settling and from mixing length point of view. The sediment diffusion term has been ...
