Experimental Study of Flow Resistance in Gravel‐Bed Rivers
Publication: Journal of Hydraulic Engineering
Volume 117, Issue 10
Abstract
In this paper an experimental investigation is carried out in order to study the effect of concentration of coarse roughness elements on the friction factor. The investigation has shown that it is possible to represent indirectly the effects of concentration by using or as characteristic diameters.
