Fast fast fast fast Water depth in the Kankakee River was measured to be 5 ft. The width of the river is 1,000 ft and the bed slope is 0.0005. Estimate the bed load using both Ashida & Michiue’s and Einstein’s methods. Assume water temperature of 20oC (ν = 1 x 10-6 m2/s) and R = 1.65. Ignore the bank resistance & the bank erosion.
