| Abstract | The duplication of the size distribution curves of 0.19 mm
and 0.JJ mm sands, given in Basic data from flume experiments
by Simons and Richardson(6) and Daranandana(5) was achieved by
the VA-tube test. The duplicated sands were then analyzed by
the method of sieve analysis.
The dimensionless sediment transport intensity ØT and
the dimensionless shear intensity parameter ψ' were calculated
using Einstein's method as based on sieve and VA-tube tests.
Curves relating ØT and ψ' were then plotted.
For 0.19 mm sand the ØT - ψ' curves indicate no signi-
ficant change. However, the ØT - ψ' curves of 0.33 mm sand
show an appreciable error if the calculations are performed on
different size distribution curves. |
