Concept explainers

Sediment transport

Sediment transport or Soil transport is the movement of solid particles, usually due to the combination of gravitational forces acting on the sediment, and the movement of the liquid at which the sediment enters. Soil erosion occurs in natural systems where the particles are sandstones (sand, rocks), mud, or clay; the liquid is air, water, or ice; and the gravitational force that works to move particles to the landing surface. Sediment transportation or soil migration due to the movement of liquids occurs in rivers, lakes, lakes, oceans, and other bodies of water as a result of currents and waves. Transportation is also caused by glaciers as they flow, and to places on earth under the influence of wind. Soil erosion due to gravity alone is possible in most sloping areas, including hills, scarves, cliffs, and the continental shelf — the continental boundary of the slope.

QUESTION 1 (25 marks) Part A A lake is being reclaimed by lowering the water table below the bottom of the lake. The lakebed consists of 10 meters of homogeneous clay, having a saturated volumetric weight of 18 kN/m². Below the clay, the soil is sand having a saturated volumetric weight of 20 kN/m². Initially, the water level is 2 m above the soil surface, after the reclamation the groundwater level is 2 m below the soil surface, and it is assumed that the soil remains saturated. Construct graphs of total stresses, effective stresses and pore pressures before and after the reclamation to a depth up to 15m from the surface.
