Influence of Particle Shape on Drag Coefficient for Commonly Occuring Sandy Particles in Coastal Areas

A well defined relationship connecting settling velocity with sediment geometry and ambient properties is an essential pre-requisite for coastal and hydraulic engineering studies. An established relationship for settling velocity of sandy particles assuming spherical shape geometry is available in t...
