A Transport Algorithm for Variable Sediment Sizes : Application to Wide Sediment Size Distributions
نویسندگان
چکیده
Total sediment transport was estimated as the summation of the transport rate of 12 sediment size fractions which were computed by an algorithm composed of three different transport relations An effective diameter for critical flow strength is used in the algorithm to account for the effect ofthe sediient mixture on the initiation of motion of each size fraction. Tests with laboratory and field data sets show that the transport algorithm gives reasonable estimates of both grain size and the rate of sediment in transport.

Most of river engineering problems are complicated and need to be analyzed by three dimensional models of flow and sediment transport. Considering the fact that computers and numerical methods with great ability of flow and sediment transport simulation are developing quickly, using numerical modeling by engineers is inevitable. Nevertheless, before application, numerical models need to be veri...

The flow in sewers is a complete three phase flow (air, water and sediment). The mechanism of sediment transport in sewers is very important. In other words, the passing flow must able to wash deposited sediments and the design should be done in an economic and optimized way. In this study, the sediment transport process in sewers is simulated using a hybrid model. In other words, using the Ada...

The lack of sediment gauging stations in the process of wind erosion, caused of estimate of sediment be process of necessary and important. Artificial neural networks can be used as an efficient and effective of tool to estimate and simulate sediments. In this paper two model multi-layer perceptron neural networks and radial neural network was used to estimate the amount of sediment in Korsya o...

When ASCE Manual No. 54, “Sedimentation Engineering,” was first published in 1975, the subject of the transport and sorting of heterogeneous sediments with wide grain size distributions was still in its infancy. This was particularly true in the case of bedload transport. The method of Einstein (1950) was one of the few available at the time capable of computing the entire grain size distributi...

One of the methods for sediment control in lateral intake can be application of submerged vanes in front of the inlet. The establishment of submerged vanes in flow path causes a flow diversion toward the inner arc. In this research, the performance of submerged vanes on sediment transport to the inlet at 180 degree of intake has been investigated. Several experiments were carried out in a labor...
