| 2 Layer Model
|
|
 | |  | | The 2 layer model as proposed by Wilson (1992) is based on a hydrostatic wall pressure approach and a bed shear stress based on the Darcy-Weisbach friction factor with the particle diameter as the roughness, multiplied by a factor 2 (Televantos (1979)). Wilson (1992) assumes that there are just 2 layers, the bed, either stationary or sliding, and water above the bed. Others have extended the model to a 3 layer model with sheet flow between the bed and the water. Here the 2 layer model graphs are shown.
Miedema & Ramsdell (2014) discuss the validity of the hydrostatic wall pressure approach and suggest two alternative approaches. The normall wall pressure carrying the bed weight approach and the weight approach. They suggest to use the weight approach.
Miedema & Matousek (2014) derived an explicit equation for the Darcy-Weisbach bed shear friction factor.
With 3 wall pressure approaches and 2 bed shear friction factor approaches, a total of 6 possibilities exists. For each of these possibilities a set of graphs is shown. |
