Numerical Simulation on the Local Scour Processing and Influencing Factors of Submarine Pipeline

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
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 ...

Localized Turbulent Flows on Scouring Granular Beds [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2005
In many applications a sustained, localized turbulent flow scours a cohesionless granular bed to form a pothole. Here we use similarity methods to derive a theoretical formula for the equilibrium depth of the pothole. Whereas the empirical formulas customarily used in applications contain numerous free exponents, the theoretical formula contains a ...

Evaluation of local scour around bridge piers for various geometrical shapes using mathematical models

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal, 2018
Bridges are one of the important structures across the Nile River; these bridges may be subjected to collapse if there is no monitoring or safety precaution for local scour during high floods.

Local scour around a bridge pier under ice-jammed flow condition – an experimental study

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2021
The appearance of an ice jam in a river crucially distorts local hydrodynamic conditions including water level, flow velocity, riverbed form and local scour processes.

Analysis of lateral bearing behaviors of scoured monopile foundations considering the influence of length-to-diameter ratio

open access: yesShuili Shuiyun Gongcheng Xuebao, 2023
Scour is one of the key factors that should be considered in the design process of offshore wind turbine (OWT) monopile foundations. However, the geometry of local scour pit and embedded length-to-diameter ratio of pile (L/D) are always ignored in ...

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.

Local scour around two pipelines in tandem in steady current

open access: yes, 2014
In this study, local scour around two identical pipelines in a tandem arrangement are investigated numerically. Two-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations are solved for simulating the flow around the pipelines and the conservation ...

Local scour at abutments: A review

open access: yesSadhana, 2004
Failure of bridges due to local scour has motivated many investigators to explore the causes of scouring and to predict the maximum scour depth at abutments. In this paper, a detailed review of the up-to-date work on scour at abutments is presented including all possible aspects, such as flow field, scouring process, parameters affecting scour depth ...

Experimental and numerical investigation into the local scour of bridge cofferdam with anti-scour ribs

open access: yesAdvances in Bridge Engineering
Cofferdam is widely employed in the construction of underwater bridge foundations. Its crucial attribute lies in providing a dedicated platform for construction activities and enhancing the water resistance dimensions in structural design, consequently ...

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.
