Ocean Engineering, 2020 The influence of scour on the lateral response of monopile foundations for offshore wind turbines is investigated in this paper. Application of lateral load-displacement (p-y) curves to predict the lateral pile behaviour is subject to uncertainty as many

Geosciences, 2019 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 ...

Shock and Vibration, 2020 As a cross-sea or river deep-water foundation, it is clear that the caisson foundation will be subjected to significant lateral dynamic loads due to winds or waves and suffer from scouring under its long-term effect.

Morphology Evolution of Three-Dimensional Scours Under Submerged Jets
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 Through physical model tests, the three-dimensional morphological features and their scale changes with time were measured and comparatively analyzed during the scouring of a homogeneous granular bed surface using submerged oblique jets.

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020 Clean Cut is a multimodal, adaptive, checklist‐based infection prevention programme designed to improve compliance with six critical perioperative infection prevention practices. After introducing the programme at five hospitals in Ethiopia, compliance with critical infection prevention standards significantly improved and the relative risk of ...

Three-dimensional scour simulations with a two-phase flow model
Advances in Water Resources, 2020 In this contribution, a three-dimensional sediment scour model based on the two-phase flow Eulerian-Eulerian solver, sedFoam, is developed within the framework of the open source platform OpenFOAM. The adoption of the Eulerian approach for both fluid and

Deformation Analysis of Large Diameter Monopiles of Offshore Wind Turbines under Scour
Applied Sciences, 2020 The displacement of monopile supporting offshore wind turbines needs to be strictly controlled, and the influence of local scour can not be ignored. Using p–y curves to simulate the pile–soil interaction and the finite difference method to calculate ...

Machine Learning Solutions for Bridge Scour Forecast Based on Monitoring Data
Transportation Research Record, 2021 Bridge scour is a challenge throughout the U.S.A. and other countries. Despite the scale of the issue, there is still a substantial lack of robust methods for scour prediction to support reliable, risk-based management and decision making. Throughout the

Modal properties variation and collapse assessment of masonry arch bridges under scour action
Engineering structures, 2019 This paper investigates the problem of flood-induced scour on masonry arch bridges through the analysis of a real case study, Rubbianello Bridge. This is a multi-span masonry arch bridge located in Central Italy, which suffered the collapse of two of the
