Estimation of scour for bridges in Illinois [PDF]

open access: yesScour and Erosion, 2016
Scour development around bridge piers is one of the main reasons for bridge failure. This paper presents the comparison of ultimate pier and contraction scour depth for cohesive soils at nine bridge sites in Illinois. Results obtained from common prediction methods such as SRICOS, Hydraulic Engineering Circular No.

Evaluation of local scour around bridge piers for various geometrical shapes using mathematical models

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal, 2018
Bridges are one of the important structures across the Nile River; these bridges may be subjected to collapse if there is no monitoring or safety precaution for local scour during high floods.

Vulnerability of bridges to scour: insights from an international expert elicitation workshop [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2017
Scour (localised erosion) during flood events is one of the most significant threats to bridges over rivers and estuaries, and has been the cause of numerous bridge failures, with damaging consequences.

Study of the time-dependent clear water scour around circular bridge piers

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2017
The local scour around bridge piers influences their stabilities and plays a key role in the bridge failures. The estimation of the maximum possible scour depth around bridge piers is an important step in the design of the bridge pier foundations.

Studying the effect of partial blockage on multi-vents bridge pier scour experimentally and numerically

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal, 2018
The local scour depth at bridge supports due to partial blockage on front of multi-vents bridge pier is studied experimentally and numerically. The existence of blockage such as debris and industrial wastes, leads to increase the local scour depth around

Mechanical plaque removal in step‐1 of care

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Maintaining a regular oral hygiene routine is essential for taking care of our mouths, ensuring healthy teeth, and achieving fresh breath. Patient education on oral hygiene is an important component of their overall treatment. Firstly, patients should be informed about the direct connection between bacteria in dental plaque and oral diseases ...

Risk-based bridge scour management: A survey

open access: yes, 2021
Scour is a major cause of bridge failure and results in significant economic losses through disruption to operation. This phenomenon naturally affects bridges with underwater foundations and is exacerbated during high river and/or turbulent flows (e.g. due to extreme events).

Local scour around a bridge pier under ice-jammed flow condition – an experimental study

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2021
The appearance of an ice jam in a river crucially distorts local hydrodynamic conditions including water level, flow velocity, riverbed form and local scour processes.

Checking the Accuracy of Selected Formulae for both Clear Water and Live Bed Bridge Scour

open access: yesJournal of Engineering, 2023
Due to severe scouring, many bridges failed worldwide. Therefore, the safety of the existing bridge (after contrition) mainly depends on the continuous monitoring of local scour at the substructure.

Estimation of Scour Depth at Bridge Piers by Using FASTER Model and Experimental Formulas [PDF]

open access: yesمهندسی منابع آب, 2017
Bridges are one of the most important river structures. One of the main causes of bridge failure is local scour at bridge piers. Yearly, Many bridges failed around the world because of disregarding hydraulic factors.
