A Study on the Maximum Scour Depth of River-Crossing Tunnels
As urbanization progresses and city populations grow, river-crossing tunnels assume a crucial role in transportation networks, with the maximum scour depth constituting a critical parameter influencing tunnel safety. Using Line 6 of the Nanning Metro in Guangxi, China as a case study, a two-dimensional hydrosediment mathematical model was employed to ...

FLOW-3D MODELLING OF THE DEBRIS EFFECT ON MAXIMUM SCOUR HOLE DEPTH AT BRIDGE PIERS [PDF]
Bridge foundations are frequently inserted in riverbeds constituted by alluvial material, being, therefore, subjected to scouring processes. Such phenomenon is aggravated during flood events due to the increase of water flow or due to the increase of the debris carried by the flow that can pile up along the bridge structural elements.

The Impact of Urban Land Use Patterns on the Synergy of Pollution Reduction and Carbon Mitigation
ABSTRACT To tackle global climate change and fulfill China's dual carbon objectives, the coordinated abatement of pollution and carbon emissions has emerged as a pivotal focus for sustainable urban development. Land use patterns and pollutant emissions are deeply connected within cities, making them a crucial lever for advancing synergistic pollution ...

Interaction of Bridge Pier and Abutment on Local Scour Around Them [PDF]
The local scour around bridge pier and abutment in recent years has been widely studied by different authors. Scant information exists as to how bridge pier proximity to abutment affects scour depth at an abutment and at a pier. Due to the fact that many

ABSTRACT Terraced fields and the Gully Land Reclamation Project (GLRP) are important soil and water conservation measures, widely constructed in China's Loess Plateau and other ecologically fragile areas in the world. However, under large‐scale governance scenarios, the impacts of the “terraced fields‐GLRP” cascade system on water and sediment ...

Experimental Scours by Impinging Twin-Propeller Jets at Quay Wall
Experiments were conducted to investigate the seabed scour holes due to the interaction between the twin-propeller jet and quay wall. Vertical quay wall was modelled by using a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastic plate in a water tank.

ABSTRACT Soil erosion is a major environmental challenge in karst regions of Southwest China, where thin soils and high bedrock exposure accelerate land degradation. This study modified the RUSLE model by incorporating bedrock exposure rate to improve erosion simulation in Guizhou Province from 2000 to 2024.
