Abstract: | A previous proposal (Leeder, 1977) to test the magnitude of the solid-transmitted stresses due to bedload transport failed to confirm Bagnold's theory because the applied fluid stress contribution was not corrected for sidewall drag. Once this correction is made there is a reasonable correspondence of theory and experiment. |
