Abstract (EN):
To do a complete analysis of the beginning of sediment motion the effect of turbulent
fluctuations must be taken into account. In this study the quadrant method is used to analyze
the different turbulent events for different established supercritical flow conditions. Detailed
velocity measurements over a loose particle of a uniform spheres bed were carried out by
means of a 2 component Laser Doppler Anemometer. The characterization of each event was
made by means of its time duration, energy and frequency. Furthermore, the matrix associated
to the event transition probability was calculated and the most probable events and transitions
were determined.
