Sediment Transport

Lund-CIRP Transport Equations

Camenen and Larson (2005, 2007, and 2008) developed a general sediment transport formula for bed and suspended load under combined waves and currents. The current-related bed load transport is given by

${\frac {q_{b}}{\sqrt {(s-1)g*d^{3}}}}=a_{c}{\sqrt {\theta _{c}}}\theta _{cw}\exp {{\biggl (}-b_{c}{\frac {\theta _{cr}}{\theta _{cw}}}}{\biggr )}$
