The Artificial Intelligence of Things Sensing System of Real-Time Bridge Scour Monitoring for Early Warning during Floods [PDF]

open access: yesSensors, 2021
Scour around bridge piers remains the leading cause of bridge failure induced in flood. Floods and torrential rains erode riverbeds and damage cross-river structures, causing bridge collapse and a severe threat to property and life.

A Probabilistic Model of the Economic Risk to Britain's Railway Network from Bridge Scour During Floods. [PDF]

open access: yesRisk Anal, 2019
Scour (localized erosion by water) is an important risk to bridges, and hence many infrastructure networks, around the world. In Britain, scour has caused the failure of railway bridges crossing rivers in more than 50 flood events. These events have been

A review of bridge scour monitoring techniques and developments in vibration based scour monitoring for bridge foundations

open access: yesAdvances in Bridge Engineering, 2023
Scour is the gradual erosion of the sediment around a bridge foundation and is one of the leading causes of bridge failure. This erosion is caused by turbulence and sediment transport mechanisms and worsens during high-water flow, such as flooding.

Strategic assessment of bridge susceptibility to scour

open access: yesReliability Engineering & System Safety
Scour-induced failures of bridges pose a global challenge, leading to significant economic and service losses. Compounded by infrequent inspections and inadequate consideration of hydro-geological factors in current scour risk assessments, this issue is particularly pressing in the context of climate change and associated hazards.

Numerical Investigation of Flow and Scour around Complex Bridge Piers in Wind–Wave–Current Conditions

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
A sea-crossing bridge is typically constructed in a marine environment with complex piers, and is susceptible to severe scour at the foundation. This study presents a numerical investigation on flow and scour around a complex pier, specifically focusing ...

Experimental investigation of local scour around multi-vents bridge piers

open access: yesAEJ - Alexandria Engineering Journal, 2015
The harmful effect of local scour around bridge piers and abutments can induce high maintenance costs or even bridge collapse resulting in the disturbance of traffic and possibly human losses.

Bridge Scour Identification and Field Application Based on Ambient Vibration Measurements of Superstructures

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
A scour identification method was developed based on the ambient vibration measurements of superstructures. The Hangzhou Bay Bridge, a cable-stayed bridge with high scour potential, was selected to illustrate the application of this method.

Vibration-based bridge scour detection: A review

open access: yesStructural Control and Health Monitoring, 2017
Scour around bridge foundations is regarded as one of the predominant causes of bridge failures. Traditional methods primarily employ underwater instruments to detect bridge scour depths, which thus have difficulties in instrument installations and ...

Towards an AI-based early warning system for bridge scour [PDF]

open access: yesGeorisk: Assessment and Management of Risk for Engineered Systems and Geohazards, 2022
Scour is the number one cause of bridge failure in many parts of the world. Considering the lack of reliability in existing empirical equations for scour depth estimation and the complexity and uncertainty of scour as a physical phenomenon, it is ...

Scour features of sea-crossing bridge piers

open access: yesShuili Shuiyun Gongcheng Xuebao, 2021
The local scour around bridge piers is one of the main safety influence factors of sea-crossing bridges in the nearshore region. Based on the survey data of six bridge piers of Jintang Sea-Crossing Bridge in Hangzhou Bay during 2014, 2015 and 2017, the ...
