abstract for investigating the effect of bed form in alluvial channels on the amount of bed load transport, a set of experiments was carried out in a tilting flume under unsteady flow conditions (hydrograph). the produced hydrographs were in triangular form with a maximum discharge of 30 to 45 lit/s/m. three size of sediment particles were used with equal to 1.5, 2.1 and 3.0mm, clear water with...
