Concept explainers

Sediment transport

Sediment transport or Soil transport is the movement of solid particles, usually due to the combination of gravitational forces acting on the sediment, and the movement of the liquid at which the sediment enters. Soil erosion occurs in natural systems where the particles are sandstones (sand, rocks), mud, or clay; the liquid is air, water, or ice; and the gravitational force that works to move particles to the landing surface. Sediment transportation or soil migration due to the movement of liquids occurs in rivers, lakes, lakes, oceans, and other bodies of water as a result of currents and waves. Transportation is also caused by glaciers as they flow, and to places on earth under the influence of wind. Soil erosion due to gravity alone is possible in most sloping areas, including hills, scarves, cliffs, and the continental shelf — the continental boundary of the slope.

The following figure shows a section of road. During road construction, the fill material has been used obove a natural soil and a thin soft clay layer. Then the fill material has been compacted untill road level. After raining, a failure took place in the road so the section would be unstable. This road is very crowded and should be repaired as soon as posible. What is your solution to improve it? Explain with detail that why you select this method.

For the beam shown, the magnitude of the concentrated load is P = 11 kN, the magnitude of the couple is MB = 190 kN-m, and the beam lengths are a = 4.9 m and b= 14.7 m. (a) derive equations for the shear force V and the bending moment M for any location in the beam. Place the origin at point. A. (b) use the derived functions to plot the shear-force and bending-moment diagrams for the beam. Use your diagrams to determine the magnitudes of the maximum shear force and the maximum bending moment. Note that answers may be positive or negative. Here, "maximum" refers to the largest magnitude value, but you should enter your shear force and bending moment with the correct sign, using the sign convention presented in Section 7.2 of the textbook. If the magnitudes of the largest positive and largest negative values are the same, enter a positive number. A MB B b C X
