Download or read book An Introduction To Hydraulics Of Fine Sediment Transport written by Ashish J Mehta and published by World Scientific Publishing Company. This book was released on 2013-09-30 with total page 1060 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents observations on the phenomena of fine sediment transport and their explanations under process-related divisions such as flocculation, erosion, and deposition.The text is a compilation of the author's lecture notes from nearly four decades of teaching and guiding graduate students in civil and coastal engineering. Illustrations of fine sediment transport processes and their complexities given in the book are taken from field and laboratory-based observations by the author and his students, as well as numerous investigators.The wide-ranging composition of particles (of inorganic and organic matter), their universal presence and their complex interactions with hydraulic forces make this branch of science a difficult one to deal with in a single treatise. It is therefore essential to study fine sediment transport as an independent subject rather than cover it in no more than a single chapter as many texts on coarse sediment transport have done.Even though the entire coverage is “introductory”, the twelve chapters collectively include more material than what can be reasonably dealt with in a one semester, three-credit course.The book includes an extensive description of the components of fine-grained — especially cohesive — sediment transport. It covers the development of the subject in scientific and engineering applications mainly from the 1950s to its present state. Solved examples and chapter-end exercises are also included.This text is aimed at senior civil engineering undergraduates and graduate students who, in the normal course of their study, seldom come across the subject of fine sediment transport in their curricula. Interested students should have a basic understanding of the mechanics of fluid flow and open channel hydraulics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This technical note examines particle size effects on sediment transport, describes a method of analysis that can be applied to identify transport paths, and presents case study results for New Bedford Harbor; a system previously studied in relation to dredging and disposal of contaminated sediments. It will be shown that for systems with substantial silt in transport, dispersed particle size is an appropriate index for transport behavior and a suitable basis for numerical transport modeling.

This book was released on 2022-11-22 with total page 1054 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book expounds the hydraulics of fine sediment which is almost ubiquitously found in coastal and estuarine waters, and in rivers, lakes, and reservoirs. Although the basic subject may be categorized as applied marine physics in shallow waters, several physicochemical and biological effects on particulate transport have been addressed.In this second edition most of the chapters have been substantially updated, rewritten, and expanded. Overall, a significant change has also been made throughout by replacing sediment concentration, a unit dependent quantity at the heart of numerous descriptions, measurements, and calculations, with the nondimensional sediment volume fraction. It marks a divergence in the manner in which fine sediment transport data and calculations are conventionally presented.The book is mainly written for civil engineering seniors and graduate students, to offer a comprehensive foundation in hydraulics of fine sediment. The book is also a useful reference for researchers interested in the effects of physical chemistry and biology on fine sediment transport in water and to an extent on coastal and estuarine morphodynamics, sediment transport, port and harbor engineering, and applied shallow watwer marine physics. The book is also recommended reading for those interested in understanding particle transport in water.Related Link(s)

This book was released on 1993-10-13 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transport and Transformation of Contaminants Near the Sediment-Water Interface addresses the issue of contaminated bottom sediments and their potential adverse impacts on water quality. This state-of-the-science book covers regulatory management perspectives, physical processes, chemical and biological processes, and process synthesis/modeling. Specific topics discussed include EPA's Sediment Quality Criteria program from a regulatory perspective; flocculation, deposition, and resuspension of fine-grained sediments; approaches for measuring vertical sediment flux near the sediment-water interface; equilibrium models for metal speciation in natural sediments; the partitioning of organic chemicals in bottom sediments; and the development and application of models of sediment and associated contaminant transport in surface waters. The significance of recent studies suggesting that interaction of contaminated bottom sediments with the overlying water play an important role in the long-term recovery of aquatic systems makes Transport and Transformation of Contaminants Near the Sediment-Water Interface essential for water quality engineers, environmental chemists, and environmental toxicologists. The volume provides important information for consultants, regulators, researchers, and graduate students as well.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation addresses recurrent questions in hydrocarbon reservoir characteri¬zation. In particular, the major focus of this research volume is microtextural characterization of source rock fabric as well as elastic and transport properties of source rocks. Source rocks are one of the most complicated and intriguing natural materials on earth. Their multiphase composition is continually evolving over various scales of length and time, creating the most heterogeneous class of rocks in existence. The heterogeneities are present from the submicroscopic scale to the macroscopic scale, and all contribute to a pronounced anisotropy and large variety of shale macroscopic behavior. Moreover, the effects of the multiphase composition are amplified within organic-rich rocks that contain varying amounts of kerogen. Despite significant research into the properties of kerogen, fundamental questions remain regarding how the intrinsic rock-physics properties of the organic fraction affect the macroscopic properties of host rocks. Because we do not fully understand the elastic properties of either the organic matter or the individual clay minerals present in source rocks, seismic velocity prediction in organic-rich shales remains challenging. Conventional measurements of 'macroscopic' or 'average' properties on core plugs are not sufficient to fully address the degree of property variation within organic-rich rocks. Alternatively, most analyses of organic matter rely on samples that have been isolated by dissolving the rock matrix. The properties of the organic matter before and after such isolation may be different, and all information about sample orientation is lost. In addition, comprehensive characterization of organic-rich rocks has been hindered by several factors: sample preparation is time-consuming, and the nanogranular nature of this rock type makes it difficult to link effective elastic properties to maceral properties, such as elastic moduli, composition, maturity, and quality. These difficulties have prevented us from building large databases, without which we cannot establish the accurate rock-physics models needed for inverting field geophysical data. I approach this issue using atomic-force microscopy based nanoindentation, coupled with scanning electron and confocal laser-scanning microscopy as a tool for visualization and identification of the organic part within shale, and to perform nanoscale elastic-property measurements. First, the microfabric of a set of source rock samples is characterized. The spatial and temporal link between organic matter and the stiff silicate mineral matrix is established, which leads to proposal of alternative Rock Physics modeling approach to organic-rich source rocks. Based on the nanoindentation measurements, I obtain elastic properties of source rock phases and provide several applications of these (nanoindentation-derived) elastic properties within a number of geomechanical problems. Finally, transport properties of various source rock formations are discussed based on comparison to more conventional reservoir rocks.
