Effect of Shape on Incipient Motion of Large Solitary Particles
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of shape and size of solid particles on their initiation of motion in open channel flows. Initial motions of 22 solitary particles having different shapes and sizes were ...
Broad-Crested Weirs with Rectangular Compound Cross Sections
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A series of laboratory experiments was performed in order to investigate the effects of width of the lower weir crest and step height of broad-crested weirs of rectangular compound cross section on the values of the discharge ...
Effect of Particle Shape on Fall Velocity of Angular Particles
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, fall velocities of 174 regularly shaped angular particles—namely cylindrical, cubic, wedge-shaped prisms, and box-shaped prisms—made of five different materials were measured in calm water conditions in a ...
