Abstract

Tests were carried out in the oscillating water tunnel to determine the bed-form lengths of sand ranging from 0.1 mm to 0.55 mm subjected to oscillatory motion of various orbital diameters ranging from 0.15 m to 1.5 m and of various periods ranging from 3 to 15 s. The relationship for the bed-form length is given in the accompanying graph in dimensionless form.
