Sediment Transport: A Geophysical Phenomenon (Fluid Mechanics and Its Applications)

Sediment Transport: A Geophysical Phenomenon (Fluid Mechanics and Its Applications) Review



This textbook discusses the fundamental principles of sediment transport in the geophysical context of rivers. It is intended as both a course textbook and as a guide for the practical engineer. It begins begin by describing phenomena such as bed load and suspension transport from a classical perspective. Concepts from turbulent flow regime are introduced to address the limitations of the classical approach to various aspects of sediment transport.
