Numerical modelling of erosion and sedimentation around offshore pipelines [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
In this paper a numerical model is presented for the description of the erosion and sedimentation near pipelines on the sea bottom. The model is based on the Navier-Stokes equations and the equation of motion and continuity of sediment.\ud \ud The ...

Effect of Cohesive and Non-Cohesive Soils on Equilibrium Scour Depth

open access: yesTikrit Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2007
In this research ,the effect of cohesive soils ( clay ) and non –cohesive soils sand on equilibrium scour depth was studied .Experiments were carried out on two types of clay and two types of sand as a bed material using an obstruction ( pier ) to create

A local scour prediction method for pile caps in complex piers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The outcomes of an experimental study on local scour at a pile cap are presented. Experiments were conducted with the approaching flow having an undisturbed flow depth and a threshold flow velocity.

Clear-water scour at comparatively large cylindrical piers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
New long-duration clear-water scour data were collected at single cylindrical piers with the objective of investigating the effect of sediment coarseness, Dp=D50 (Dp = pier diameter; D50 = median grain size) on the equilibrium scour depth and improving ...

Modeling of local scour depth downstream hydraulic structures in trapezoidal channel using GEP and ANNs

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal, 2013
Local scour downstream stilling basins is so complex that it makes it difficult to establish a general empirical model to provide accurate estimation for scour depth. Lack estimation of local scour can endanger to stability of hydraulic structure and can

Impact of takeoff angle of bucket type energy dissipater on scour hole [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Scour holes formed downstream of bucket type energy dissipater may affect the safety and stability of the structure. In this study, a physical model is employed to study the impact of takeoff angle of bucket type energy dissipater on the scour hole.

Empirical Formulas to Predict the Maximum Scour Depth With Debris Accumulation Around A Single Cylindrical Bridge Pier: An Experimental Study [PDF]

open access: yesEngineering and Technology Journal, 2020
The probability of debris accumulation near bridge piers during the heavy storm and river flood convert the hydraulic action of flow and increase the scour depth due to the reduction of flow area and the increase in velocity of flow.

Preliminary comparison of scour depth estimation methods

open access: yes, 2022
Bridge scour is a major cause of bridge collapse worldwide. Various approaches are available to estimate levels of scouring due to hydraulic loading. Such scour depth assessment methodologies typically employ a series of empirical and semi-empirical equations to estimate scour around a bridge element.

Quantification of Modelling Uncertainties in Bridge Scour Risk Assessment under Multiple Flood Events

open access: yesGeosciences, 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 ...

Analysis of Lateral Dynamic Response of Caisson Foundation in Layered Clayey Soils considering Scour-Hole Dimensions

open access: yesShock 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.
