Modelling of Sand Transport with Graded Sands under Oscillatory Sheet-Flows
The present study focuses at improving our basic understanding of size-graded sand transport mechanisms under oscillatory sheet-flow conditions using different transport models. Moreover, the study aims at improving the performance of different transport model concepts for the description of both the rate and size-composition of the transported sand. Quasi-steady and intermediate models are investigated, in combination with a large dataset of oscillatory sediment transport measurements (sheet-flow conditions) as collected from two oscillatory water tunnels. A comparison is made between the measured net transport rates and transport rates per size fraction and the results from various transport formulas. First, the comparison is based on a 1-fraction approach i.e. the sand is modeled using D50 of the mixture. Second, a size-fraction approach is tested and developed further using the experimental dataset. Exposure corrections are proposed for fine and coarse size fractions in the sand mixture to improve model performance.
