Mobile bed model
Most difficult hydraulic model uncertainties
State of knowledge in mobile bed model is still on debate
Approach:
Understand the dominant response mechanism of sediment
Assume that the sediments are reacting primarily to waves with
current added

Suspension Dominated Transport Models
Considered :
Relative fall speed
Relative density
Use of Dean’s number : H/(wsT)
represent the ratio of the time taken for the sediment to fall
at a distance of one wave height to that of wave period
If H/(wsT) > 1 suspended sediment is likely to
predominate over bed load transport fall speed ratio (NFS)
