TLDR
In this article, an attempt is made to derive an empirical law of bed-load transport based on recent experimental data and the results and interpretation of tests already made known in former publications of the Laboratory for Hydraulic Research and Soil Mechanics at the Federal Institute of Technology, Zurich.Abstract:
In the following paper, a brief summary is first of all given of the results and interpretation of tests already made known in former publications of the Laboratory for Hydraulic Research and Soil Mechanics at the Federal Institute of Technology, Zurich. After that, an attempt is made to derive an empirical law of bed-load transport based on recent experimental data. We desire to state expressly that by bed-load transport is meant the movement of the solid material rolling or jumping along the bed of a river; transport of matter in suspension is not included.read more

Sediment transport in analogue flume models compared with real‐world sedimentary systems: a new look at scaling evolution of sedimentary systems in a flume
TL;DR: In this article, it is shown that the generation of two-dimensional stratigraphy in a flume can be simulated numerically by the non-linear diffusion equation, and the error between model and real-world prototype is largest for the suspension-dominated prototypes, although never more than 30% and only at the beginning of the fill-up stage.

Model studies of transport of sedimentary material in the western Baltic
TL;DR: In this paper, a model study of the transport of sedimentary material in parts of the Baltic Sea and is based on a model system which links a general ocean circulation model (Modular Ocean Model, MOM 3) adapted to the Baltic, a wave model, a bottom boundary and a sediment transport model.

Urban Storm Sewer Design: Approach in Consideration of Sediments
Jose J. Ota,Chandra Nalluri +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a new model for the transport at limit deposition criterion was developed based on physical concepts for extrapolation for sewers larger than 500 mm in diameter, which leads to more economical solutions than previously developed best-fit deterministic models.

Stream Erosion Potential and Stormwater Management Strategies
TL;DR: In this article, the effectiveness of typical stormwater management policies in reducing the potential for stream-channel erosion was examined by using hydrologic and sediment transport modeling, and the performance of the relationships in estimating detention requirements across modes of sediment transport was compared.
