Dataset for: "Settling velocity of microplastic particles having regular and irregular shapes"

-The "settlingVelocity.mat" is a MATLAB binary workspace file containing the dimensions, density, and settling velocity (mean and standard deviation) of all microplastic particle groups, with their time series of measured vertical particle positions. -The "settlingVelocity.xlsx" is an Excel worksheet listing the particle number, shape/particle code, material, dimensions, characteristic length scales, Corey shape factor, sphericity, density, settling velocity (mean and standard deviation), Reynolds number, and drag coefficient of all microplastic particle groups with the density and kinematic viscosity of water. -Example experimental videos for each microplastic particle group are provided with the naming convention "Particle_X(Shape).mp4", where “X” refers to the particle group number and “Shape” is the particle shape (e.g. sphere, circular disk, cube, etc.). Please note that the videos are low-quality when using the preview. For optimal quality, it is suggested to download the videos and play the files directly.
