Abstract: | Hydronamic modification by settling from a turbulent suspension of an originally unsorted sediment produces grain size distributions
that correspond to the size characteristics of many natural suspended and bottom sediments. Evaluation of the resulting equations
allows parameterization of sediments in terms of three constants describing the source material, transport energy, and reworking
history, respectively. |
