Notes:
A three-dimensional, time-dependent free surface model has been developed which takes account of topographical and meterological parameters for application to suspended particles transport. This investigation of suspended particles transport is the most realistic in regard to treating the moving free-surface in computing the hydrodynamic field. A unique mass-conserving numerical model is used for solving the concentration equation by an explicit finite difference scheme. The paper presents a mathematical model which can be applied to surface water dispersion of particulates associated with dredging operations and land-fill. The effects of settling velocity and bottom bed deposition rate are compared and discussed.
