The acceleration of saltating grains by overland flow causes momentum to be transferred from the flow to the grains, thereby increasing flow resistance and bed roughness. To assess the impact of saltating sediment on overland flow hydraulics, velocity profiles in transitional and turbulent flows on

The velocity of overland flow has been conventionally measured using tracers, but it is difficult to measure the mean flow velocity directly because the centroid of the tracer plume is not easily identified. Consequently, previous investigators have measured the velocity of the leading edge of the p
The sedimentation velocity of multiparticle suspensions was investigated expetimentally for cases where the column wall is likely to have a nonnegligible effect. The experiments demonstrate that the container wall diameter influences the falling velocity only for dilute systems, which is in contrast
