The book was written with a special emphasis on sediment particles. Sediment particles are complex colloidal particles due to their composition, shape and interaction with their environment. Characterization of the colloidal fraction of sediment is done by recording, among others, the particles? size, shape and electric surface charge and evaluating their density or their interactions. These properties are important for civil engineering applications. Large-scale sediment transport models for example require as input the settling velocity of particles. In concentrated areas, this velocity becomes a function of the particles? concentration and particle-particle interactions lead to the creation of larger particles, called flocs. These flocs can settle and, when reaching the bed, consolidate in time. All these aspects, and related models, are treated in the present book. 517 $aIntroduction to Colloid Science 606 $aTGM$2bicssc 610 $acolloid 610 $aclay 610 $asediment 610 $aflocculation 610 $asettling 610 $aconsolidation 610 $aphysico-chemistry 610 $aDLVO theory 610 $arheology 615 7$aTGM 700 $aChassagne$b Claire$4auth$01304375 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911010569103321 996 $aIntroduction to Colloid Science: Applications to sediment characterization$94398825 997 $aUNINA
