Determining the Predominant Governing Parameters of the Bed-Load Equations for Sediment-Laden Rivers on the Continental Shelf

Khorram, Saeed; Ergil, Mustafa (Coastal Education and Research Foundation, 2011)

Sediment transport between the emerged land masses and deep marine basins is a fundamental process that affects the exploitation of resources and protection of the environment and its ecosystems. Sediment transport models ...
Manifesting predominant governing parameters of total load sediment flux equations for gravel particles in reservoir engineering

Khorram, Saeed; Ergil, Mustafa; Jafari, Mostafa (NRC Research Press, 2012-11)

Many reservoirs in the world are aging, and dredging has been the most common method to maintain the function of the reservoirs. The main problem affecting the useful life of the reservoirs is sediment deposition. Knowledge ...
Most Influential Parameters for the Bed-Load Sediment Flux Equations Used in Alluvial Rivers

Khorram, Saeed; Ergil, Mustafa (Wiley, 2010-09)

Problems of bed-load sediment transport equations in alluvial rivers are addressed in this study where user-friendly parameters were developed. To determine the influences of 300 parameters on the final result, 52 selected ...
Pinpointing the key parameters in estimating the bed-load sediment flux in reservoir engineering

Khorram, Saeed; Ergil, Mustafa (Springer Verlag, 2012)

When a dam is constructed on a river to store water, sediments transported by the water flow are also stored and reservoir capacity is gradually reduced by sediment accumulation. Prediction of sediment distribution in ...
A Sensitivity Analysis of Total-Load Prediction Parameters in Standard Sediment Transport Equations1

Khorram, Saeed; Ergil, Mustafa (Wiley, 2010-09)

The lack of a well-defined, strong correlation between sediment transport load and the dominant variable selected for the development of a sediment transport equation is one of the fundamental reasons for discrepancies ...
