Suspended Sediment Test in Channel

This case provides a fundamental check of the ability of a model to 1) represent a simple flow, 2) flux material from the bed, and 3) develop a suspended-sediment profile.

This case provides a fundamental check of the ability of a model to 1) represent a simple flow, 2) flux material from the bed, and 3) develop a suspended-sediment profile.
