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

Length Parameter for Scaling Abutment Scour Depth [PDF]
Water, 2020 Flow constriction caused by bridge abutment increases bed shear stress and thus enhances local scour. For scaling the maximum scour depth at the abutment, either abutment length or flow depth has been empirically used in previous studies. By performing a step-by-step analysis, this study proposes a new length scale, which is able to represent combined ...

Vision‐Based Handover and Organization of Robotic Scrub Nurse for Seamless Surgical Flow
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This study presents a pose estimation‐based robotic scrub nurse (PERSN) that assists surgical procedures by estimating the surgeon's hand position, orientation, and grasping state, along with the constraint‐based 6D pose of surgical instruments. User evaluations show that PERSN provides greater immediate usability and reduces physical demand compared ...
