A diffusive model for evaluating thickness of bedload layer

The thickness of the bedload layer is a crucial parameter for evaluating sediment transport rates in open channel flow, but it is often determined empirically. Based on the concept of the hydrodynamic diffusion related to particle particle interactions, an analytical model is proposed in this study...
