The 2D laminar quasistationary interacting boundary layer flow with mass tr
ansport of a suspended sediment is solved over an erodable bump (or dune) i
n the case of a fluvial regime. It is assumed that if the skin friction goe
s over a threshold value, the bump is eroded, then, the concentration of se
diment in suspension is convected but falls at a constant settling velocity
. This changes the shape of the dune, examples of displacement toward final
equilibrium states are presented. (C) 2000 Academie des sciences/Editions
