Abstract:
The authors present a measurement method that makes it comparatively inexpensive to carry out continuous measurements of sediment transport and display them in real time with very little computing power. The measurement method is part of a system for the continuous diversion or recirculation of sediments discharged from a flume or a laboratory canal. The core of the measurement method is a camera-optical gray value comparison of 8-bit grayscale images of a transparent measuring field, taken with...     »
