Evaluation of an In Situ Measurement Technique for Streambank Critical Shear Stress and Soil Erodibility
… JTD and determine how it compares to traditional flume studies. To evaluate the repeatability, a total of 21 jet tests were conducted on two remolded soils, a clay loam and clay, compacted at uniform moisture content to a bulk density of 1.53 g/cm^3 and 1.46 g/cm^3, respectively. To determine the …

Initial settlement of marine invertebrate larvae : the role of passive sinking in a near-bottom turbulent flow environment
… in the field were dictated from laboratory flume experiments to determine the relative particle collection efficiencies of traps. The flume flow was seeded with particles having fall velocities similar to those measured, in the laboratory, for nonswimming polychaete larvae. The flume flow …

Effect of Bacterial Strain on MICP and its Application for the Erosion Control of Fine Sands
… for characterisation, with element-scale flume testing and controlled modelling of a heterogeneous layered system. The flume tests employed a newly designed Erosion Function Apparatus (EFA) and testing procedure to measure surface erosion, focusing on fine-coarse sand interfaces treated …

Temporal and Thermal Effects on Fluvial Erosion of Cohesive Streambank Soils
… fluvial erosion of cohesive soils First, erosion tests were performed to investigate how soil erosion resistance develops over time using three natural soils and testing in a laboratory water channel. Results showed that the erosion rate of the soils decreased significantly over the time since the …
