We find, in agreement with recent experimental results, that the reduced growth velocity is a universal function of some rescaled density variable.engjournal articlehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1016/S0378-4371(96)00277-4http://www.sciencedirect.com/restricted access536SuspensionsTermodinámica2213 Termodinámica
