online_dispersivity:  Calculation of convection, diffusion, and dispersion coefficients
of flood wave propagation   

[ SI Units:  uo in m/s; yo in m ]
[ U.S. Units:  uo in fps; yo in ft ]
Reference

F = uo / (g yo)1/2

V = (β - 1) F

qo = uo yo

Lo = yo / So

c = [ 1 + (V / F ) ] uo

ν = (Lo / 2) uo ( 1 - V 2 )

η = (Lo / 2) 2 uo ( 1 - V 2 ) F 2

c' = 1 + (V / F )

ν' = (1/2) ( 1 - V 2 )

η' = (1/4) ( 1 - V 2 ) F 2

F = Froude number;
V = Vedernikov number.
