Abstract
Seashores and river bottoms are constantly eroded by the flow processes. Grains of various types, including gravel, sand, silt, and clay, mixed at different ratios, and demonstrating varying characteristics, are the constituent materials of these eroding land features. The present study quantifies the importance of the geomechanical properties of soils, with a large fraction of granular material and a smaller portion of fine grain particles, on the incipient motion of the sediment under steady-state flow. Further, it highlights the implications of the soil properties on the erosion and recession of steep beach and bluff systems.References
