Abstract:In this study, the directionally fixed air tunnel testing equipment are used for obtain nearly
close natural uniform wind and provide more stable wind speed for tunnel test. The changes of sand
ripple moving speed in different location are observed under given wind speed condition. The sand
ripple lines formation and moving process are tested on flat surface of sand, in Taklimakan desert.
The results shown that the sand ripple forming rapidly from non ripple surface to ripple surface and
moving along the wind … Show more
