Effect of trapezoidal collars as a scour countermeasure around wing-wall abutments
Local scour around bridge abutments is a widespread problem that can result in structural failure. Collars can be used as a countermeasure to reduce the scour depth.

Simulation of Scour at Bridge Supports
Groups of piers are used on bridges to minimise scour around bridge supports. The prediction of scour around piers due to interaction of vortices around bridge piers is more complex compared to scour prediction around a single pier.

Experimental study on local scour around the pile on the sandy seabed under wave action
The local scour caused by a pile on a slope differs to that at the flat sand bed. A 1:16 slope with sediment median size of 0.32 mm was set up, and an experimental study of local scour around the pile under the action of regular wave was conducted. Under

Experimental Investigation of Scour Prediction Methods for Offshore Tripod and Hexapod Foundations
Scour prediction is essential for the design of offshore foundations. Several methods have been proposed to predict the equilibrium scour depth for monopiles.

Empirical Formulas to Predict the Maximum Scour Depth With Debris Accumulation Around A Single Cylindrical Bridge Pier: An Experimental Study [PDF]
The probability of debris accumulation near bridge piers during the heavy storm and river flood convert the hydraulic action of flow and increase the scour depth due to the reduction of flow area and the increase in velocity of flow.

Geometric Characteristics of Spur Dike Scour under Clear-Water Scour Conditions [PDF]
Factors such as flow and sediment characteristics affecting the spur dike’s local depth of erosion have yielded considerable research results, but there is little discussion of the geometry of the spur dike’s local scour holes. This study focuses on the spatial characteristics of the geometry of local scour holes in straight-wall spur dikes.
