Experimental investigation of riprap protection for a jacket foundation under varying hydrodynamic actions

open access: yesApplied Ocean Research
In recent years, the jacket foundation has emerged as a critical structural support in marine engineering, particularly for offshore wind farms. Despite its significance, there has been limited research on protective measures for jacket foundations. This

Local Scour Development at Engineering Structures during Multiple Floods

open access: yes
Using the differential equation of equilibrium of the bed sediment movement in clear water, a method for calculating the scour development in time at engineering structures in river flow during floods has been elaborated.

Creating a Masterpiece. The Road to (and Beyond) Woodward and Hoffmann's 1969 Angewandte Chemie Treatise

open access: yesThe Chemical Record, EarlyView.
This publication describes how R. B. Woodward and Roald Hoffmann crafted their masterpiece publications. Illustrations include Woodward's first draft of the famous “Violations There are none. Nor can violations be expected of so fundamental a principle of maximum bonding.” Original but discarded text shows the stepwise paths toward the W‐H masterpieces.

Local Scour at Elliptical Guide Banks in Plain Rivers

open access: yes
The scour development in floods at abutments (Gjunsburgs & Neilands 2001, 2004, 2005, Gjunsburgs et al. 2004, 2005, 2006) and at elliptical guide banks is studied. The scour hole extents at abutments and guide banks are different. At the upstream head of

Reusing health records from farm animal practices at scale: A potential complementary method of surveillance

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Disease in primary care frequently represents a surveillance blind spot, particularly for diseases affecting farm animals. Methods Electronic health records (EHRs) were collected from four farm animal veterinary practices in Wales (February 2024‒January 2025) as part of a pilot study.

Wildlife temporal behaviors in response to human activity changes during and following COVID‐19 park closures

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
With urbanization reducing the amount of available wildlife habitat, and outdoor recreation increasing the human activity within wildlife habitats, it is important to understand the effects of human activity on animal behavior. This study examined how the reduction in human presence in urban parks in Gainesville, Florida, affected the temporal ...

Flow Velocity Effect on Clear Water Bridge Pier Scour

open access: yes, 2020
-For a long while, scour mechanism has been a major problem to be solved by many researchers. Local scour phenomenon at bridge piers has many parameters such as flow characteristics, sediment type, bridge pier shape and alignment. To find a general scour

Scour at coastal structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The subject of scour (and siltation) at coastal structures continues to receive much interest in the consulting and research fields. Coastal structures can be categorised as having four functions, either (1) to provide permanent protection against ...

Integrating multiple surveys using state–space models improves inference of population trends for Illinois furbearers

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Long‐term population monitoring is fundamental to wildlife population management. Furbearer populations are often surveyed using multiple methods, but many estimates of their abundance, especially abundance indices, do not account for detection error, and lead to conflicting interpretations of population trends.

Local Scour at Straight Guide Banks in Plain Rivers

open access: yes
The local scour at abutments, elliptical and straight guide banks in plain rivers was studied. The flow pattern and the scour hole parameters at abutments, elliptical and straight guide banks are different.
