Experiment and fitting calculation of migration critical velocity of small-sized sediment particles erosion in rainwater pipeline

The migration critical velocity of small-sized sediment particles was investigated through experiments under different particle sizes, pipe wall roughness, and sediment thickness. Such experiments were carried out to simulate the erosion process of small-sized sediment particles in a rainwater pipel...
