Numerical simulation of sediment mixture deposition part 1: analysis of a flume experiment

This paper reports the numerical simulation of previously published laboratory experiments concerning deposition of a sediment mixture in a flume. The results of the simulation are analyzed and their interdependencies are discussed with reference to flume observations and previously published analyses. Cross-comparison of different parameters of the system (deposition rate, sediment transport, grain size) allows some validation of the system of equations of our modeling system. It may also give some clues and directions for further measurements and numerical experiments.
