Predicting maximum scour depth around bridge abutment using M5 model [PDF]

open access: yesعلوم و مهندسی آبیاری, 2018
Scour around piers and abutments leads to a lot of bridge failures. Scouring around the bridge piers and abutments is one of the most important factors in bridge failure which happens over time and increases during floods, probably causing general damage

Structural Health Monitoring for Performance Assessment of Bridges under Flooding and Seismic Actions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Bridges can be subjected to damaging environmental actions due to flooding and seismic hazards. Flood actions that result in scour are a leading cause of bridge failure, while seismic actions that induce lateral forces may lead to high ductility demand ...

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.

Observations of River Topography and Flow Around Bridges [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This investigation was motivated by the amount of river, estuarine, and coastal infrastructure that is susceptible to extreme wave and flooding events. The high velocities and resulting shear stresses associated with high flow velocities are capable of ...

Disorder‐Induced Extremely Low Thermal Conductivity of Graphite Fluoride

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This article investigates the effect of fluorination on the thermal conductivity of graphite fluoride, demonstrating the relationship between structural modification and thermal conductivity in an extreme case. The record‐low through‐plane thermal conductivity measured in exfoliated graphite fluoride flakes was found to correlate with the wide ...

Experimental Investigation of the Effects of Flow Discharge on the Scour Rate around the Groups of Bridge Piers with a Rough Surface in the Presence of Aggregate Extraction Pits

open access: yesعلوم آب و خاک, 2021
The scour around the bridge piers is one of the main causes of bridge failure and the extraction of aggregates may aggravate this phenomenon. The present study comprehensively investigated the scour around the groups of bridge piers in the presence of ...

Backwater controls of avulsion location on deltas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
River delta complexes are built in part through repeated river-channel avulsions, which often occur about a persistent spatial node creating delta lobes that form a fan-like morphology. Predicting the location of avulsions is poorly understood, but it is

Challenges and enablers in fluidization technology

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Gas–solid fluidized beds provide excellent heat and mass transfer for high‐throughput operations from coating to catalytic conversion and underpin emerging low‐carbon technologies. Yet industrial reliability, scale‐up, and control lag scientific understanding, particularly as finer, stickier, and more variable feedstocks increasingly challenge

Pier sediment scour tests for Merrill-Barber Bridge final report [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The objectives of this study were 1) to determine the maximum structure-induced local sediment scour depths for the proposed bridge piers for the Merrill Barber Bridge over Indian River on.State Road 60 in Indian River County, Florida and 2) to ...
