Evolution of Fine-Grained Sediment Deposits Over Moderate to Long Time Scales
نویسنده
چکیده
The objectives of this project for FY98 have been to 1) participate in the analysis and interpretation of the bottom boundary layer field studies; 2) test and apply a 2-dimensional, time-dependent model of shelf sediment transport to investigate the importance of advection and flux divergence to event bed formation and the emplacement of flood deposits; and 3) incorporate flocculation effects into the shelf sediment transport model and evaluate the importance of this process to storm-driven transport.

Investigating the Effect of Sedimentary Basin on Consolidation of Kerman Fine-Grained Soils
In this research, the effects of a sedimentary basin, environmental conditions, and the passage of time were investigated on consolidation processes and engineering characteristics of fine-grained soils in Kerman city. For this purpose, the natural consolidation curves of soil samples extracted from different locations of Kerman city were compared with the Kerman city intrinsic consolidation li...
متن کاملProcesses Controlling Transfer of Fine-Grained Sediment Within and Between Channels and Flats on Intertidal Flats
A long-term goal of our sediment transport and accumulation investigations is to link sedimenttransport processes to the formation and preservation of event beds in sediment deposits. The general aim of this project is to investigate how forcing processes affect the sediment-transport dynamics that act to import or export fine-grained sediment in intertidal regions. We strive to understand how ...

Mashhad city is located on alluvial deposits where the expanded area of this city, especially the central and eastern areas surrounding Imam Reza holy shrine, are built on weak and fine-grained deposits. Therefore, the soil improvement would be inevitable due to construction of high-rise buildings such as hotels and commercial complexes in these areas, as well as restructuring old buildin...
