Erratum

After publication of the original article [1], it came to the authors’ attention that there was a typing error in equation 16. There should be a rho on the denominator of this equation.

The published version of equation 16 is:

m=1ρnIknIcv2+1

The correct version of equation 16 is:

m=1ρnIknIcv2+1ρ
