The settling behaviour and benthic transport of fish feed pellets under steady flows / by Sutherland, T.F., C.L. Amos, C. Ridley, Ian G. Droppo and S.A. Petersen.: En13-5/05-167E-PDF

"Settling and erosion experiments were carried out on a size range of fish feed pellets using an annular flume (Mini Flume). A strong positive correlation was observed between settling rate and pellet dimension (pellet length, pellet diameter, and equivalent sedimentation diameter). Erosion thresholds also showed a strong positive correlation with pellet dimensions"--Abstract, page 2.
