Title A Two-fraction Model for the Transport of Sand/Gravel Mixtures
Creator Wilcock, Peter Kenworthy, S. T.
Description A mixed-size sediment transport model using only two fractions, sand and gravel, offers practical advantages in terms of the required input and conceptual advantages by readily incorporating the nonlinear effects of sand content on transport rate. A two-fraction model is developed from flume and field transport observations. Sand and gravel transport rates are collapsed to a single transport function using a scaling parameter representing incipient motion for each fraction. The incipient...
