Laboratory Study of Local Scour Around an Array of Pile Groups in Clear-Water Scour Conditions

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Current-induced local scour around pile groups weakens the capacity of structures. In this paper, experimental tests of local scour around an array of 5 × 5 pile groups were conducted in a steady current in a hydraulic flume.

Experimental investigation of local scour around multi-vents bridge piers

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2015
The harmful effect of local scour around bridge piers and abutments can induce high maintenance costs or even bridge collapse resulting in the disturbance of traffic and possibly human losses.

Efficient Adsorption‐Based Direct Air Capture Via Triply Periodic Minimal Surface Architectures

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Architected triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) contactors reshape direct air capture by replacing straight‐channel diffusion limits with convection‐enhanced CO2 transport. Chaotic advection thins boundary layers and exposes fast adsorption sites, enabling 70%–75% more fast sites, 114% higher productivity, and 51.8% lower energy consumption than ...

Ablation‐Immune Thermal Armor Via Microstructural‐Compatibility Design for Extreme Thermal Conditions

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study unveils a microstructural‐compatibility design strategy that integrates reactive melt infiltration with plasma spraying to fabricate carbon fiber‐reinforced ZrC‐SiC composites. The deliberate incorporation of SiC into the ZrC coating releases heat accumulation, suppresses detrimental lamellar ZrO2 formation, and reduces residual stress. This

On local scouring downstream small water structures

open access: yesPeerJ, 2020
Background In order to regulate water flow, hydraulic structures such as weirs or checks, frequently equipped with gates, are used. Water can flow below or over the gate or, simultaneously, over and below the gate.

Numerical investigation of wave-induced local scour around a submarine pipeline

open access: yes, 2014
A two-dimensional numerical model is developed in this work to predict the local scour around subsea pipelines induced by the orbital fluid motion due to free-surface water waves. Instead of being simplified as an oscillatory flow, the motion of the wave

Tri‐Functional Electrocatalysis for Zinc–Air Battery Coupled Water Splitting: A Catalyst‐Electrode‐Device‐System Perspective

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review establishes a catalyst–electrode–device–system framework for tri‐functional HER/OER/ORR electrocatalysis that couples water splitting with Zn–air batteries. Five catalyst families are covered: noble‐metal, metal‐based, single‐atom, heterostructure, and metal‐free systems.

Local Scour at Bridge Abutments

open access: yesJournal of King Abdulaziz University-Engineering Sciences, 1998
This paper presents the results of an experilnental investigation of local scour at bridge abutment models of three common shapes placed in laboratory flume with uniform sand with d)l) =0.775 mm. The 1l1uximum scour depths and extent of scour were determined corresponding to clear water conditions.
