Estimate of Sediment Pickup Rate with the Densimetric Froude Number

The present study shows that the sediment pickup rate is better correlated with the densimetric Froude number than the Shields number. With laboratory data collected in open channel flows, an empirical formula for estimating the pickup rate is proposed. Because it does not involve the critical condi...
