Experimental study on self-accelerating turbidity currents

A self‐accelerating current is a particle‐driven gravity flow moving on a sloping bottom whose velocity increases in the downstream direction as a result of increasing suspended sediment concentration due to sediment entrainment from the bed. This implies that the net balance between deposition from...
