The potential rate of bed-load transport [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2006
Averages of measurements made in three rivers characterized by a high availability of sediment in relation to runoff, and comparable data that represent the high end of the range of transport rates observed during three sets of laboratory experiments, confirm there is an upper, particle-size-dependent limit to bed-load transport ...

Influence of Bed‐Load Transport on Flow Resistance of Step‐Pool Channels

open access: yesWater Resources Research, 2018
This study investigates the influence of bed‐load transport on flow resistance and bed stability in steep step‐pool channels. A total of 86 flume experiments was performed.

Quantification of bed-load transport over dunes [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2018
There is disagreement in the literature as to whether a shear stress-based approach can be used to accurately predict sediment transport over dunes. This study aims to address this disagreement.

The impact of intermittency on bed load sediment transport [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2021
AbstractSediment transport by wind or water near the threshold of grain motion is dominated by rare transport events. This intermittency makes it difficult to calibrate sediment transport laws, or to define an unambiguous threshold for grain entrainment, both of which are crucial for predicting sediment transport rates. We present a model that captures

Development of a machine learning model for river bed load [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics, 2023
Prediction of bed load sediment transport rates in rivers is a notoriously difficult problem due to inherent variability in river hydraulics and channel morphology.

Hysteretic Implications for Graded Bed Load Sediment Transport in Symmetrical Hydrograph Flows

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2021
Differential parametric values associated with bed load sediment transport, that result at the same discharge levels on the rising and falling limbs of a flood hydrograph, are usually defined as bed load hysteresis.

Quantitative Study on Bed Load Proppant Transport during Slickwater Hydraulic Fracturing

open access: yesLithosphere, 2021
Bed load proppant transport is a significant phenomenon during slickwater hydraulic fracturing. However, the mechanism of bed load proppant transport is still unclear.

A bed load transport equation based on the spatial distribution of shear stress – Oak Creek revisit [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics, 2020
Bed load transport formulations for gravel-bed rivers are often based on reach-averaged shear stress values. However, the complexity of the flow field in these systems results in wide distributions of shear stress, whose effects on bed load transport are

Experimental study on the impact of bed forms on bed load transport in mountain streams

open access: yesShuili Shuiyun Gongcheng Xuebao, 2021
The flume experiments of bed load transport in the conditions of highslope shallow water flow were carried out in order to explore the impact of flow hydraulics and bed forms on bed load transport in gravel-cobble rivers in mountainous areas.

Bed load transport by submerged jets [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1979
Some similarities are presented between the bed load transport of noncohesive grains in long rivers and at a local, jet-induced scour. Experiments are described in which a submerged two-dimensional slot nozzle, inclined downward, eroded a deep sand bed.
