For a bidisperse kinematic sedimentation model with normalized suspension concentrations qi​, isolated speeds Wi​, and a stationary deposit with p1​+p2​=1, the upward deposit-front speed magnitude obeys s(pi​−qi​)=Wi​qi​(1−qi​). Adding gives s=∑i​Wi​qi​(1−qi​)/(1−∑i​qi​); substitution determines each deposited fraction. These are Rankine-Hugoniot conditions with a stationary compacted branch.
