Conclusions
-
1.
Channels composed of cohesive and noncohesive soils have a characteristic form of dynamic stability (especially in permeable soils having coagulation-cementation structural bonds).
-
2.
The distribution of the longitudinal velocity in the vertical characterized by the parameter x=0.17 indicates dynamic stability of a channel composed of both noncohesive and cohesive soils.
-
3.
The hydraulic parameters of dynamically stable channels in noncohesive soils can be determined by Eqs. (7)–(9) and in cohesive by Eqs. (10–(12).
