Critical Shear Stress for Erosion of Sand-Mud Mixtures and Pure Mud
The erosion threshold of sand-mud mixtures is investigated by analyzing the momentum balance of a sand particle or a mud parcel in the mixture bed surface, and a formula for the critical shear stress of sand-mud mixtures is developed, which also applies for pure sand and mud. The developed formula s...
