| Title | The Critical Shear Stress of Natural Sediments |
| Creator | Wilcock, Peter |
| Description | The critical shear stress of individual fractions "rci in unimodal and weakly bimodal sediments shows little variation with grain size and depends only on the mean grain size bf the mixture. For strongly bimodal sediments, ~'ci increases with grain size, an apparent result of a lateral segregation of the finer and coarser fractions on the bed surface that causes "rcl to deviate from size independence in the direction of unisize (Shields) values. A quantitative definition of mixture bimodality... |
