Title | Methods for Estimating the Critical Shear Stress of Individual of Individual Fractions in Mixed-Size Sediment |
Creator | Wilcock, Peter |
Description | Two methods are commonly used to estimate the critical shear stress of individual fractions in mixed-size sediment, one using the largest grain displaced, the other using the shear stress that produces a small value of transport rate for each fraction. The initial-motion results produced by the two methods are typically different: largest-grain critical shear stresses vary with roughly the square root of grain size, and reference transport critical shear stresses show little variation with... |
