Transport of bed load sediment in the presence of stable clast / Mohd Sofiyan Sulaiman

Surface bedform in the form of stable clast is deduced to be presence at micro-scale. Stable clast is believed to modify the flow field and provide sink and source for incoming sediment particles. The dynamics of flow pattern and bed load rate in the presence of stable clast are always puzzling due...
