The initiation and maintenance mechanism of multi-cellular secondary currents in a straight wide-river is quite unknown at present. This study investigated experimentally the existence of secondary currents over a flat bed by varying the aspect ratio of channel. It was suggested strongly that an initiation of cellular secondary currents may be motivated by the mutual interaction between the secondary currents and the sand bed. Refs.
