Sediment Transport

Focused on the interplay between turbulent flow and sediment transport, this book advances the understanding of how solid particles interact with fluid dynamics. It critiques existing theories and proposes new representations for flow separations and coherent structures. Organized into four parts, it caters to both engineers and physicists by covering classical and statistical approaches, addressing complex issues like rheology and vortical dynamics, and exploring micromechanical principles to explain bedform formation through turbulence research.
