A model for the entrainment and transport of sediment grains of mixed sizes, shapes, and densities

JS Bridge, SJ Bennett - Water Resources Research, 1992 - Wiley Online Library
A model for the entrainment and bed load transport of sediment grains of different sizes,
shapes and densities by a unidirectional turbulent flow is developed in terms of (1) sediment …

Velocity structure, turbulence and fluid stresses in experimental gravity currents

BC Kneller, SJ Bennett… - Journal of Geophysical …, 1999 - Wiley Online Library
Gravity currents are of considerable environmental and industrial importance as hazards
and as agents of sediment transport, and the deposits of ancient turbidity currents form some …

Pleiotropic effects of growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1 on biological aging: inferences from moderate caloric-restricted animals

…, WT Cefalu, RL Ingram, SA Bennett… - … Series A: Biomedical …, 1999 - academic.oup.com
Moderate caloric restriction (60% of ad libitum intake) is an important model to investigate
potential mechanisms of biological aging. This regimen has been reported to decrease the …

Turbulence modulation and particle velocities over flat sand beds at low transport rates

J Best, S Bennett, J Bridge, M Leeder - Journal of Hydraulic …, 1997 - ascelibrary.org
The presence of sand moving at low transport rates over a flat bed modulates the production
of turbulence when compared to clearwater flow at similar mean flow conditions. Phase …

Using simulated emergent vegetation to alter stream flow direction within a straight experimental channel

SJ Bennett, T Pirim, BD Barkdoll - Geomorphology, 2002 - Elsevier
River restoration programs often use vegetation to enhance the biological functionality,
recreational opportunities, and aesthetic beauty of degraded stream corridors. Yet, none has …

Agricultural practices and sustainable livelihoods: Rural transformation within the Loess Plateau, China

Q Tang, SJ Bennett, Y Xu, Y Li - Applied Geography, 2013 - Elsevier
Effective agricultural practices can enable and sustain rural livelihoods, particularly in rapidly
developing and transforming areas such as the Chinese Loess Plateau. Drawing from the …

A depth‐averaged two‐dimensional model for flow, sediment transport, and bed topography in curved channels with riparian vegetation

W Wu, FD Shields Jr, SJ Bennett… - Water resources …, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
A depth‐averaged two‐dimensional numerical model has been developed to simulate flow,
sediment transport, and bed topography in river channels with emergent and submerged …

The effects of growth hormone and IGF-1 deficiency on cerebrovascular and brain ageing

…, C Lynch, P Thornton, A Khan, S Bennett… - The Journal of …, 2000 - cambridge.org
Research studies clearly indicate that age-related changes in cellular and tissue function
are linked to decreases in the anabolic hormones, growth hormone and insulin-like growth …

Specificity and properties of propofol as an antioxidant free radical scavenger

TR Green, SR Bennett, VM Nelson - Toxicology and applied pharmacology, 1994 - Elsevier
The active component of the anesthetic propofol (2,6-diisopropylphenol), which structurally
resembles butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), a known free radical scavenger, was examined …

Spectral analysis of turbulent flow and suspended sediment transport over fixed dunes

JG Venditti, SJ Bennett - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2000 - Wiley Online Library
Laboratory measurements of turbulent fluctuations in velocity and suspended sediment
concentration were obtained synchronously over fixed two‐dimensional dunes in a sediment‐…
