Integrated approaches for modeling sediment transport

摘要

This paper exemplifies, in the field of sediment transport, the need for an integrated approach coupling all physical phenomena. Three cases are successively dealt with, in the framework of the Telemac hydroinformatic system: coupling of hydrodynamics with bed-load transport, simultaneous treatment of bed-load and suspended sediment transport, and finally integrated computation of hydrodynamics and suspended sediment in 3 dimensions.
