- Additional information
- This output from EPSRC EP/K015117/1 and Royal Society Research Grant (RG120540) develops a new non-invasive lab-based electrical resistivity technique to measure the transition from hindered settling to initial bed consolidation phases for sand-clay mixtures during deposition. It provides experimental data to validate, for the first time, a previously-derived polydisperse hindered settling model (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.coastaleng.2008.05.001). The work also underpins an EPSRC impact acceleration award (EP/K503915/1) and Carnegie Trust Research Incentive Grant (70105) to further develop (in collaboration with Partrac Ltd.) the technique for application to cyclic mixed sediment erosion-deposition events and characterisation of segregation in estuarine sediments.
