Modified stochastic diffusion particle-tracking model (MSDPTM) incorporating energy cascade theory and eddy intermittency for suspended sediment transport in open channel flow.

This study presents a modified stochastic diffusion particle tracking model (MSDPTM) that incorporates energy cascade theory to more accurately simulate suspended sediment transport. The impact of turbulent eddies on sediment particles is an intermittent process, which is also considered in this study. The study examines the time correlation between eddies using eddy turnover time and finds that closer-scale eddies exhibit higher correlations than those farther apart.
