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.

3. Water flows at a rate of 5 m3/s in a rectangular channel width of 10 m. The normal depth of flow in the channel is 5 m. If a sharp crested (suppressed) weir of height 5 m is installed across the channel, determine the new flow depth in the channel for the same flow rate. What would the flow depth be if the rectangular weir were contracted (on both sides) to a width if 7 m? What would the flow depth be if a 7 m wide Cippoletti weir is used?

6.8.11. A diversion gate backs up flow in a 5-ft wide rectangular irrigation channel (So = 0.001, 0.015). The discharge in the channel is 50 cfs. If the depth of flow at the gate is 5 ft, deter- mine the channel and flow classification (e.g., M-2, S-1) upstream of the gate and explain your supporting logic. Then determine the water surface profile by finding the depth of flow at distances of 200 ft, 500 ft, and 1,000 ft upstream of the gate. Use a spreadsheet or appropriate computer software to perform the computations. (See the book's preface for computer software suggestions.) %3D n%3D
