Sediment-laden gravity currents, or turbidity currents, are density-driven flows that transport
vast quantities of particulate material across the floor of lakes and oceans. Turbidity currents …

Turbidity currents are important ocean dynamic processes that influence sediment transport,
ocean engineering, and marine environments. As a turbidity current evolves, its macroscopic …

Hybrid event beds form when turbidity currents that transport or locally acquire significant
quantities of mud decelerate. The mud dampens turbulence driving flow transformations …

Deep-marine strata consisting of a sandy basal part overlain sharply by a muddier and mud-
clast-rich upper part are increasingly being recognized in the deep-marine sedimentary …

The central problem of describing most environmental and industrial flows is predicting
when material is entrained into, or deposited from, suspension. The threshold between …

Aqueous suspensions of magnesium hydroxide are shown to exhibit low ζ-potential
behavior and highly complex settling dynamics. Two distinct regimes of hindered settling …

We analyze the consolidation of freshly deposited cohesive and noncohesive sediment by
means of particle-resolved direct Navier-Stokes simulations based on the immersed …

Equilibrium sediment transport is the condition of zero net entrainment and deposition by
sediment‐transporting flow (ie grade or regime). Here criteria for equilibrium sediment …

Hindered settling, the process by which the settling of sediment particles becomes impeded
due to the proximity of other sediment particles, can be an important process for the coastal …

To interpret the deposits from particle‐laden flows it is necessary to understand particle
settling at their base. In this paper a quantitative model is developed that not only captures …
