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 ...

Unified Criterion for Clear‐Water Local Scour Induced by Junction Flows and Wall Jets
Local scour in a sediment bed varies depending on the type, size and shape of hydraulic structures, and the properties of approach flow and sediment particles. Published studies are hitherto confined primarily to empirical experiments based on particular

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.

Scour around bridge piers is a complex phenomenon and it is essential to assess or predict the scour hazard around bridge piers in tandem with completely understanding its mechanism.

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.

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
