Critical shear stress for incipient motion of a particle on a rough bed

Is the critical Shields stress for incipient sediment motion dependent on channel-bed slope?

[1] Data from laboratory flumes and natural streams show that the critical Shields stress for initial sediment motion increases with channel slope, which indicates that particles of the same size are more stable on steeper slopes. This observation is contrary to standard models that predict reduced stability with increasing slope due to the added downstream gravitational force. Processes that m...

Influence of shear stress fluctuation on bed particle mobility

Whether or not a sediment particle is entrained from a channel bed is associated with both average bed shear stress and shear stress fluctuation, the latter being flow-dependent and also related to bed irregularities. In the first part of this study, a preliminary analysis of possible fluctuations induced by bed roughness is presented for the case of immobile plane bed comprised of unisized sed...

a study on thermodynamic models for simulation of 1,3 butadiene purification columns

attempts have been made to study the thermodynamic behavior of 1,3 butadiene purification columns with the aim of retrofitting those columns to more energy efficient separation schemes. 1,3 butadiene is purified in two columns in series through being separated from methyl acetylene and 1,2 butadiene in the first and second column respectively. comparisons have been made among different therm...
