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.

5.5. A power-law channel section is to be excavated to accommodate 15 m³/s when flowing full. The channel is on a slope of 0.07%, and Manning's n of the lining material is estimated as 0.015. If the channel is to have a top width of 1.50 m, what is the equation of the shape of the best hydraulic section?

A canal transports a flow of 100 m3/s with a depth of 1.5m. This canal is made of concrete (Manning coefficient of 0.012) and has a slope of 0.02%. The cross-section can be found below. www.www 1.5 m B Figure 1 Canal cross-section Q a) Determine the width of the canal (B) if the flow is currently at normal depth. b) A crack in the concrete was recently discovered. Drying up that portion of the canal with the help of a cofferdam has been suggested in order to correct the situation. It has been suggested that this structure be 50% of the width of the canal. What are your thoughts on this? Is this feasible? What are the consequences? You must clearly state your opinion and explain clearly the effects the cofferdam will have on the flow of water in the canal if it is set up as suggested.
