Investigation of suspended sediment transport using ultrasonic techniques
نویسندگان
چکیده
The results of the initial experimental studies involving the scattering of ultrasonic signals from canonical and nonanonical shaped suspended particles with known elastical qualities are reported. These results have formed the basis for the development of a numerical model for ultrasound propagation through low-concentration suspensions of sand particles.

Investigation of Possibility of Suspended Sediment Prediction Using a Combination of Sediment Rating Curve and Artificial Neural Network Case Study: Ghatorchai River, Yazdakan Bridge
Estimation of sediment loads in rivers is one of the most important, difficult components of sediment transport studies and river engineering. Accessing new methods that can be effective in this background are more important. In this research, we have used the artificial neural network (ANN) to optimize the results of the sediment rating curve (SRC) to predict the suspended sediment loads. For ...
متن کاملNonlinear acoustical properties of suspended sediment
Maritime advances during recent years have shown the importance of and the need for development of ultrasonic methods for the investigation of the transport of suspended marine sediments in rivers and in coastal regions. Two main acoustical procedures have been developed and used for the investigations of suspended sediment qualities during the laboratory studies, (1) high frequency resonance b...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Computer Model for the Prediction of Littoral Sediment Transport Rate
In this paper, longshore sediment transport in littoral zones is investigated. For investigation of sediment transport in the nearshore zone, the effects of waves, currents and topographical conditions of coast are considered. Linear wave theory was used for the investigation of the wave behaviour. Governing equations of littoral current are continuity and momentum ones. For calculating concent...

متن کاملTemporal Changes of Effective Discharge for Suspended Sediments Transport in Korkorsar Watershed
Suspended sediment transport by rivers is important in water quality of cities and villages fed by certain drainage basins. On the other hand, the effective discharge refers to discharge that transports the most sediment over long time and controls the shape of river bed. Therefore, determination of effective discharge for suspended sediment transport and analysis the variation of effective dis...
