Abstract: Erosion tests were run on soft cohesive sediment beds freshly deposited from a concentrated slurry, in a large rotating annular flume. A total of seven tests were carried out with the bed age varying between 1.8 and 18.9 days. A surface type erosion was observed for the applied shear stress range (0.1 to 1 Pa). Following the increase in the water flow, the erosion rate increases quickly to a peak value and then drops off to about zero. The eroded depth was less than 8 mm for all beds, but the resistance to erosion at a given depth and for a given bed structure increased with increasing bed age. This phenomenon was attributed to
