Résumé : |
The fall velocity of coastal or river sediment is usually calculated by literature formulas. Many authors have highlighted that this procedure is not really suitable for evaluating the average fall velocity of the natural sediment as a whole. A direct measurement of the sediment samples is recommended.
A large number of tests with different sands setting tube diameters, fallings heights and sand concentration have been investigated. Suggestions for a correct use of the settlings tube are made. Measurements on 23 sands (three of them shingles), improved the Eq. (3) proposed by She et al. (2005), showwing that it could be a promising formula to calculate the average fall velocity of natural sands.
