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.

A rectangular channel 6 m wide has 1.50 m depth of water flowing with a mean velocity of 0.75 m/s. a standard sharp-crested weir increases the depth in the channel approach to 2.50 m. when the flow in the channel is 6.75 m³/s and considering the velocity of approach, find the height of the weir.
Water flows over a 1.5-m-high sharp-crested rectangular weir. The flow depth upstream of the weir is 2.5 m, and water is discharged from the weir into an unfinishedconcrete channel of equal width where uniform-flow conditions are established. If no hydraulic jump is to occur in the downstream flow, determine the maximum slope of the downstream channel.
A cast iron rectangular channel under uniform-flow conditions has a bottom width of 7 feet, the water flow rate is 75 ft3/s, and the terrain where the channel is situated drops 1.5 feet per 1000 feet length. Determine the minimum height.
A full-width sharp-crested weir is to be used to measure the flow rate of water in a 7-ft-wide rectangular channel. The maximum flow rate through the channel is 180 ft3/s, and the flow depth upstream from the weir is not to exceed 3 ft. Determine the appropriate height of the weir.

Use the alternative retardance based approach to determine the maximum flow rate that can be handled by this channel?
Consider two identical 15-ft-wide rectangular channels each equipped with a 3-ft-high full-width weir, except that the weir is sharp-crested in one channel and broad-crested in the other. For a flow depth of 5 ft in both channels, determine the flow rate through each channel.
Develop a conceptual design for a trapezoidal concrete (Gunite, good section) channel that is sized to convey a design discharge of 50 m3 /sec. Evaluate the feasibility of constructing a channel with a bed slope of 0.005, a bed width of 3 m, and side slopes of 2:1. Determine the design flow depth. If the flow depth exceeds 2.0 m, the design will not be feasible. Comment on the feasibility of the design and, if necessary, discuss ways the channel might be modified to comply with the maximum flow depth of 2.0 m.
Determine the discharge over a standard contracted weir when the upstream water depth is 2.1 m. The weir (one end contraction) is 1.8 m high and has a 1.8 m overflow length. Also determine the approach velocity head (see Figure 8.10a) in the 4-m-wide channel. Is it significant?
