Abstract
Yang's unit stream power formula is modified for the computation of total bed-material load in a sediment-laden river with a high concentration of fine suspended materials. Theoretical and laboratory studies indicate that modification can be made on the values of particle fall velocity, flow viscosity, and relative specific weight without any change of the coefficients used in Yang's original formula. Comparisons between computed results from the modified formula and field indicate that the modified formula can be used to compute total bed-material load in the Yellow River with accuracy.
