  • Incipient resuspension of silt-clay deposits in oscillatory and unidirectional flows

    Creator:
    Talebbeydokhti, Nasser
    Abstract:
    Incipient motion of cohesive sediment and the role of flow parameters were investigated for separate and combined unidirectional and oscillatory flows. Sediment from Sturgeon Lake, mainly silt and clay with organic matter, was used as bed material In recirculating and wave flumes. Bench-type experiments indicated that when the submerged sediment...

  • Observations and prediction of intermittent sediment suspension in the surf zone

    Creator:
    Yoon, Hyun Doug
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation the interactions between hydrodynamics, sediment suspension and transport, and morphological evolution in the surf zone was investigated with a large-scale laboratory experiment data, CROss-Shore Sediment Transport Experiment (CROSSTEX). The data set included comprehensive measurements of water surface elevation, fluid velocity, sediment concentration, and morphology for irregular waves...

  • Sediment transport in a gravel-bottomed stream

    Creator:
    Milhous, Robert T.
    Abstract:
    Sediment transport in a gravel-bottomed stream located in the Oregon Coast Range was studied to determine the effects of a single layer of large particles (the armour layer) located at the surface of the bed material. The bed load transport system was studied jointly with suspended sediment transport to understand...
