Side Bars in River Channels: the Conditions of Formation and Dynamics

The conditions governing side bar origination in canals and river channels are considered based on the analysis of the data of experiments conducted in the State Institute of Hydrology. The scheme of bed load transport for the side bar-type channel process is presented. The results of calculations using a formula proposed earlier to describe the velocity of side bar displacement are compared with the experimental and field data.     

On the Effect of the Froude Number and Hydromorphometric Parameters on Sediment Transport in Rivers

Water Resources - A number of requirements for sediment transport formulas are considered for using in mathematical and physical models of alluvial channels. Some formulas (Bagnold, Petrov,...
