Numerical Study of the Flow and Blockage Ratio of Cylindrical Pier Local Scour
A three-dimensional large eddy simulation model is used to simulate the turbulent flow dynamics around a circular pier in live-bed and clear-water scour conditions. The Navier–Stokes equations are transformed into a σ-coordinate system and solved using a

Clear Water Scour around at a Piano Key Side Weir of the Type A at 120° Section of a 180° Curved Channel [PDF]
A side weir is a hydraulic control structure used in irrigation and drainage systems and combined sewer systems. The Piano Key Weir (PKW) is a new type of long crest weirs that have a relatively simple structure and high economic efficiency structures ...

Clear-Water Scour at Comparatively Large Cylindrical Piers [PDF]
AbstractNew long-duration clear-water scour data were collected at single cylindrical piers with the objective of investigating the effect of sediment coarseness, Dp/D50 (Dp = pier diameter; D50 = median grain size) on the equilibrium scour depth and improving the scour depth time evolution modeling by making use of the exponential function suggested ...

Effect of debris accumulation on scour evolution at bridge pier in bank proximity
Large debris transported by flood affects scour features at bridge piers and increases the risks of structural failure. Geometric characteristics of the debris and the relative position of the pier with respect to the river bank are important parameters ...

Local Scour Around The Cylindrical Bridge Pier With Two Sizes of Bed Material [PDF]
Local scour around the bridge piers results from the flow impact with bridge piers and it’s streamline separation. The scour hole around the bridge piers depend on the hydraulic characteristics of the flow, the specifications of the fluid, the pier’s ...

Experimental investigation of the angle effect of the cylindrical bridge group piers relative to the flow direction on the maximum scour depth of the piers [PDF]
Bridges are one of the important structures in the field of land communication. With the construction of these structures in the river, a flow pattern with a three-dimensional structure is formed in the vicinity of its piers, and as a result of ...

Combination of Riprap and Submerged Vane as an Abutment Scour Countermeasure
Scour is one of the main causes of hydraulic structural failures. The present experimental study examines the use of riprap, submerged vanes, and a combination of these for scour reduction around vertical walls and spill-through abutments under clear ...
