Experimental and numerical investigation of the effect of different shapes of collars on the reduction of scour around a single bridge pier. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The scour phenomenon around bridge piers causes great quantities of damages annually all over the world. Collars are considered as one of the substantial methods for reducing the depth and volume of scour around bridge piers.

The Applicability of Time-Integrated Unit Stream Power for Estimating Bridge Pier Scour Using Noncontact Methods in a Gravel-Bed River

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
In near-field remote sensing, noncontact methods (radars) that measure stage and surface water velocity have the potential to supplement traditional bridge scour monitoring tools because they are safer to access and are less likely to be damaged compared

Bridge pier flow interaction and its effect on the process of scouring [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
University of Technology Sydney. Faculty of Engineering and Information Technology.Previous investigations indicate that scour around bridge piers is a contributor in the failure of waterway bridges. Hence, it is essential to determine the accurate scour

Clear-Water Experimental Scour Depths At Abutments

open access: yes, 2018
Abstract—Laboratory experiments on local scour process at wing wall bridge abutments were conducted for different hydraulic conditions and compared with measurements on local scour depths around vertical wall abutments, under the same flow and sediment transport conditions.

Who is local and what do they know? Braiding knowledges within carnivore management in Europe

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Growing recognition of Indigenous Peoples and traditional local communities as stewards of biodiversity has brought to the fore the issues of knowledge and value pluralism in conservation policy and practice. Given their basis in practical and multi‐generational experience, Indigenous and local knowledges are highly relevant to managing human ...

Numerical investigation of scour behavior around complex piers under flood conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment
IntroductionLocal scour at bridge piers is a primary cause resulting bridge failure, a risk that is significantly exacerbated under extreme hydrodynamic events such as floods.MethodsThis study presents a numerical investigation of the scour behavior ...

Enabling effective urban green space stewardship through planning: A qualitative comparative analysis in Southwest England

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Amid increasing urbanisation and biodiversity decline, ‘effective stewardship’ of urban green space (UGS) is a complex but critical nature‐based solution for long‐term environmental, social and economic gain. Combining stewardship and sense‐of‐place frameworks with European nature‐based solutions guidance, we investigate which social and ...

The Effects of Permeable, Impermeable and Bandal-like Spur-dike Angel On Geometric Dimensions of Scouring In Submerged Conditions [PDF]

open access: yesعلوم و مهندسی آبیاری, 2017
The purpose of this study is to compare the scouring hole geometric dimensions for three kinds of spur-dike: permeable, impermeable and bandal-like for submerged conditions by conducting a set of experimental tests.

Reducing Scour around Semi-Elliptical Bridge Abutments: Application of Roughness Elements

open access: yesFluids, 2023
Bridge abutments in river channels induce local scour. Recent research indicates that introducing roughness elements on the surface of the bridge abutments can influence the flow pattern around the abutment, reducing the intensity of eddies and diverting
