About this document
Generalized Sediment Transport Models by dequanzhou is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document summarizes generalized sediment transport models developed by the US Bureau of Reclamation called GSTAR models. The models use a stream tube concept to simulate semi-two-dimensional flows and semi-three-dimensional bed variations. Minimum stream power theory is used to determine optimal channel geometry. Models include GSTARS, GSTARS 2.0/2.1, GSTARS3, and GSTAR-1D. They can model sediment transport, scour, deposition and river morphology. Examples show how the models have been used worldwide f
