Five different transport theories are available to calculate the sediment transport rates of non-cohesive sediment in pure current:
· The Engelund & Hansen total-load transport theory
· The Engelund & Fredsøe total-load (bed load plus suspended load) transport theory
· The Zyserman & Fredsøe total-load (bed load plus suspended load) transport formulation
· The Meyer-Peter & Müller bed-load transport theory
· The Ackers & White total-load transport method
