Image-based Lagrangian Particle Tracking in Bed-load Experiments
Image analysis has been increasingly used for the measurement of river flows due to its capabilities to furnish detailed quantitative depictions at a relatively low cost. This manuscript describes an application of particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) to a bed-load experiment with lightweight sediment. The key characteristics of the investigated sediment transport conditions were the presence of...
متن کاملResponse of a Channel With Alternate Bars to a Decrease in Supply of Mixed.Size Bed Load: A Flume Experiment
Gravel bed channels have a much greater capacity than sand bed channels to regulate the mobility of the bed surface through the formation of a surface layer of bed particles that is coarser than the particles supplied as load. The coarse surface layer affects bed mobility in two important ways. First, it reduces differences in mobility between coarser and finer particles on the bed surface by m...
متن کاملCalculating bed load transport in steep boulder bed channels
[1] Steep, rough channels occupy a large fraction of the total channel length in mountainous regions. Most sediment mobilized on hillslopes must pass through these streams before reaching lower-gradient channels. Steep channels have wide grain size distributions that are composed of finer, more mobile sediment and large, rarely mobile grains. The large grains can bear a significant portion of t...
متن کاملTurbulent Structure of Water and Clay Suspensions with Bed Load
The discusser wishes to congratulate the authors for their excellent paper. He would like to discuss some possible drag reduction effects. The discusser has reanalyzed the authors' data assuming quasi-uniform flows at the end of the channel. For the clearwater flow experiments (runs C-1 and C-2), the data suggest an equivalent roughness height k, of the flume (smooth plexiglass) between 0.15 mm...
متن کاملSuspended load and bed-load transport of particle-laden gravity currents: the role of particle–bed interaction
The development of particle-enriched regions (bed-load) at the base of particle-laden gravity currents has been widely observed, yet the controls and relative partitioning of material into the bed-load is poorly understood. We examine particle-laden gravity currents whose initial mixture (particle and fluid) density is greater than the ambient fluid, but whose interstitial fluid density is less...
