 | |  | | The 3 layer model is based on the 2 layer model but with sheet flow between the bed layer and the water layer. Here the 3 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.
We believe that the Miedema & Ramsdell (2014) weight approach combined with the Miedema & Matousek (2014) bed shear stress approach is the closest to reality.
