Introduction of New Flow Resistance Parameter for the Study Coefficients of Vertical Velocity Distribution
Abstract: Validity of log-law distribution of velocity in vertical section for alluvial channel under different localized bed and flow conditions is studied in this paper. In this study a new dimensionless parameter, Hari’s Number (Ph), whose value is to be taken as Q/νh, is proposed to relate the same with numerical coefficients of log-law distribution. It was found that the values of numerical coefficients could satisfactorily be correlated to the proposed …

History and Development of Design of Regime Channels: A State of the Art Review
Abstract: Channels carrying sediment laden water and constructed in erodible alluvial materials must be designed to be silt stable or in regime such canals by definition neither scour nor silt. The design of channel involves the selection of channel alignment, shape, size and bottom slope. In general, a channel changesincessantly in its position, shape and slope, as a consequence of hydraulic forces acting on its bed and banks. The design of …
