Etude expérimentale du transport de sable fin en suspension sous l'action de la houle et du courant
Experimental study of fine suspended sediment transport by waves and currents
EDF, Laboratoire National d'Hydraulique
Abstract
Open channel experiments have heen performed in order to study the development of ripples and the transport in suspension of fine sand, by currents, regular waves, and superposed waves and currents. Measurements of instantaneous velocities and concentrations were carried out in order to calculate fluxes of suspended material. Ripples mean dimensions could be obtained from a statistical analysis of bed profiler data during both equilibrium and transition regime.
