A ferrofluid-based sensor to measure bottom shear stresses under currents and waves. Data set: Ferrofluids_Opt_2018_DiDonFranceesco

<p>The experimental calibration of the system for measuring bed shear stresses under currents was carried out at the Hydraulic Laboratory of the University of Catania.</p> <p>In this experimental campaign the magnet S0805 and S0808 were used. The tests were conducted for several bottom configurations (smooth bottom; thin sand d<sub>50</sub>=0.24 mm; coarse sand d<sub>50</sub>=0.56 mm; and mixed sand 70% thin sand and 30% coarse sand). The goals of such tests were: to study the effects of the type of magnets and to carry out a preliminary analysis the ferrofluid behavior over sandy bottom.</p>
