Abstract

This paper presents the results of experimental investigations of certain sediment characteristics found pertinent to the control of localized scour in alluvial channels. A relationship between fall velocity of the sediment particle, velocity at the beginning of sediment motion, and bed shear velocity is then developed in terms of the nominal diameter. All results are presented in the form of graphs.
