It is theoretically predicted that the pseudoplaslicity decreases the sedimentation velocity and its reduction is pronounced at large voidage. The present theory is discussed using the available empirical correlations. Additional informationNotes on contributorsJAROMIR J. ULBRECHT To whom all correspondence should be sent.Read More
