Scour depth prediction around bridge abutments: A comprehensive review of artificial intelligence and hybrid models

The Physics of Fluids
Scouring around the bridge structure is a major concern of the globe. Therefore, a precise estimation of the scour depth is essential to minimize bridge failure and provide preventive measures.

Scour failure of bridges

Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Forensic Engineering, 2012
In recent years there have been several bridge collapses in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland that have been caused by scour. Towns in the north west of England have been cut off and loss of life occurred. Major railway lines have been closed for extended periods.

Kentucky Bridge Scour Program

WRPMD'99, 1999
In 1995, the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) started working with Ogden Environmental and Energy Services (Ogden) to establish a risk assessment approach to analyze bridge scour. This program integrated the best ideas from other state scour programs, and the experiences of KYTC and Ogden.

Probabilistic Bridge Scour Estimates

Journal of Hydraulic Engineering, 1998
Scour at bridges is generally estimated as a deterministic value. Other loads at bridges, such as vessel impact and wind loads, are determined as probabilistic values. In an effort to use probabilistic estimates as a tool in decision making, a probabilistic framework was developed for estimating scour using deterministic methods given in the Hydraulic ...

Scour at Bridge Crossings

Journal of the Hydraulics Division, 1960
Relationships are proposed for prediction of scour at piers and abutments for case in which sediment is supplied to scour hole; relationships were obtained from combination of approximate analysis and laboratory experiments, and depend on knowledge of flow conditions at bridge site; studies were made at Iowa Institute of Hydraulic Research.

Local and Contraction Scour at Bridge Abutments

Building Partnerships, 2000
In most experimental studies on erosion at bridge piers and abutments, the value of the blockage ratio b/B between the transversal obstacle dimension and the flume width is kept as small as possible (typically b/B b is not small compared to B so that the average acceleration due to contraction is expected to increase the scour effects of the ...

Bridge’s Scour Monitoring System

2014
The scour of pier in riverbed is one of the major causes for bridge failure. The riverbed around the pier footing can be eroded in scouring event. Erosion of soil around the bridge foundation could lead to problems from instability of substructure to complete bridge failures.

Scour at Wide Bridge Piers

Building Partnerships, 2000
Most empirical, local scour prediction equations over predict scour depths at structures that are wide compared to the water depths where they are located. This paper discusses various researchers attempts to deal with this problem. The methods and equations used by several Western European Countries (obtained during the FHWA, 1998 European Scanning ...

Circular time-domain reflectometry system for monitoring bridge scour depth

Marine georesources & geotechnology, 2020
Sediment has a severe effect on bridge stability, and time-domain reflectometry (TDR) is a suitable method for assessing scour depth. This paper presents a fundamental study to demonstrate the suitability of a circular TDR system to enhance the ...
