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 ...

PREDICTION OF EQUILIBRIUM SCOUR HOLES USING OPTIMIZATION PROCEDURES
This paper presents an optimization procedure that finds the equilibrium scour depth under a pipeline. Even though much knowledge on scour is available for the most typical marine structures such as a vertical circular monopile of a horizontal pipelines the calculation of the scour depth complex and time-consuming as the transient solution is often ...

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.

Numerical Investigations on Scour and Flow around Two Crossing Pipelines on a Sandy Seabed
When a pipeline is laid on the seabed, local scour often occurs below it due to sea currents. In practical engineering, there are some cases that two pipelines laid on the seabed need to cross with each other.

Numerical Simulation on the Local Scour Processing and Influencing Factors of Submarine Pipeline
To investigate the different influencing characteristics of local scour around submarine pipelines, hydrodynamic and sediment transport two-dimensional models based on Flow-3D are used to numerically simulate the local scour around the pipeline under ...

Local scour is a dynamic process evolving during the lifetime of bridges as a result of the changes in hydrologic and hydraulic conditions. Current approaches for scour risk assessment are generally based on the evaluation of the equilibrium scour depth ...

Equilibrium Scour-Depth Prediction around Cylindrical Structures [PDF]
Offshore gravity base foundations (GBFs) are often designed with complex geometries. Such structures interact with local hydrodynamics, creating an adverse pressure gradient that is responsible for flow and scour phenomena, including the bed shear stress amplification.

The characteristics of local scour around large-diameter submerged cylinders are quite different from the non-submerged ones under combined wave and current conditions. Local scour model tests are carried out in a wave-current flume. A submerged cylinder
