Saltation is the dominant mode of the sediment transport in rivers. Several factors such as the viscosity of the carrier liquid, size of the moving particles, the roughness of the river bed, initial conditions of the numerical procedure... more
A three-dimensional numerical model was applied to study the bed morphology and bedload transport of the junction of Ara and Kurau rivers in Perak in Malaysia. SSIIM2 a 3D k-ɜ turbulence CFD model with an adaptive, non-orthogonal and... more
ABSTRACT The hydraulic control of bed-load transport rates in Nahal Yatir and Nahal Eshtemoa, two coarse-grained ephemeral channels in the semiarid northern Negev, Israel, provides a rare opportunity to infer the spanwise variation in... more
In fluvial-estuarine systems, three main physical processes zones can be identified: a) river-dominated; b) tide- dominated; and c) wave-dominated. In the river-dominated zone, water and sediment transport is directed seaward, whilst in... more
Recent field measurements of mobile-bed roughness in selected streams in Czech Republic are described. The results are collected in a database organized to a www catalogue. The field results of the bed roughness in two gravel-bed streams... more
Appropriate and acceptable prediction of bed load being carried by streams is vitally important for water resources quantity and quality studies. Although measuring the rate of bed load in situ is the most consistent method, it is very... more
The article presents the results of the analysis of the chemical composition of bed loads (layer of 0-1 cm) entering through streams in gullies from the limits of the Saratov city to the Volgograd Reservoir. The content of six heavy... more
