A relationship between fall velocity of the sediment particle, velocity at the beginning of sediment motion, and bed shear velocity is then developed in terms of the nominal diameter. All results are presented in the form of graphs.technical reportsengCopyright and other restrictions may apply. User is responsible for compliance with all applicable laws.
