Abstract
A sensitivity analysis is then carried out to determine the effects of pit geometry on the model results. The morphodynamic response is found to be strongest for sandpits elongated in the preferred direction of sandbank formation (giving the largest area of morphodynamic influence), and weakest for pits perpendicular to this direction. The migration of the pit is shown not to depend on the pit geometry, but rather on the ambient flow conditions.
