The Effect of Hydraulic Partitioning on Prediction the Rate of Bed Load Transport in Gravel-bed Rivers using Support Vector Machine by Kiyoumars Roushangar, Mohammad Hosseini, Saman Shahnazi

“…Obtained results show that prediction of bed load transport with the median diameters of sediment particles (D50) ranging from 1 to 1.4 mm led to significant outcomes of NSE= 0.952, as well as flow condition in the intervals of 0.65 and 0.75 of Froude number generate better predictive ability with NSE= 0.925. Besides, it is found that hydraulic conditions govern the rivers flow in specific intervals of Shear Reynolds number and bed slope of channel led to better predictive ability of bed load transport rate in gravel-bed rivers. …”
