Abstract
- An analytical model is presented to determine the threshold bed shear stress for noncohesive sediment motion subject to upward seepage on horizontal sedimentary bed under a stream flow. Hydrodynamic, seepage, and micromechanical forces acting on a solitary sediment particle, resting over a sedimentary bed under slip-spinning condition, are analyzed. The correlation coefficient between the results obtained using the present model and the experimental data of threshold bed shear stress with upward seepage on the horizontal bed is 0.767. It indicates that the model predicts satisfactorily the threshold bed shear stress with upward seepage. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
