The Physics of Blown Sand and Desert Dunes
TL;DR: The physics of blown sand and desert dunes, The physics of windblown sand and sand dunes, this paper, and the physics of dunes in the Middle East and Africa.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experiments on a Gravity-Free Dispersion of Large Solid Spheres in a Newtonian Fluid under Shear
TL;DR: In this article, a large number of spherical grains of diameter D = 0.13 cm were sheared in Newtonian fluids of varying viscosity (water and a glycerine-water-alcohol mixture) in the annular space between two concentric drums.
Journal ArticleDOI
The flow of cohesionless grains in fluids
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that if the bed is composed entirely of potentially mobile grains a stress-equilibrium relation at the bed surface can be defined whereby the magnitude of a certain "bed load" of grains in transit over unit bed area is given in terms of the applied tangential stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bed load transport by natural rivers
TL;DR: In this article, a general empirical relation between stream power ω and sediment transport rate ω − ω 0 was proposed, which is consistent with the theoretical relation deduced previously (Bagnold, 1973).
