Tidal Bore Scour around a Spur Dike
Tidal bores are a natural phenomenon with high flow velocity and destructive potential. A spur dike is a widely used river regulation and embankment protection structure that minimizes erosion, promotes deposition, and protects riverbanks.

Comparative study of local scour methods at bridge piers in the toribio river
Local scour is a morphological process originated by the presence of a foreign object or an obstacle within water flow alignment; therefore, bridge piers act as the cause of this phenomena, generating a significant bed level change in a river´s cross ...

Investigation of the Effect of Six Legged Concrete (SLC) Elements Combined with Riprap on Scour Depth at Vertical Wall Bridge Abutments [PDF]
Destruction of bridges caused by scour and other natural phenomenon brings about financial and life losses. Hence, researchers have been studied extensively the scour mechanism and methods of scour countermeasure.

Scour Protection of Submarine Pipelines Using Ionic Soil Stabilizer Solidified Soil
A novel scour protection approach for pipeline using the Ionic Soil Stabilizer (ISS) solidified soil was proposed in this study. The ISS-solidified slurry can be poured adjacent to the pipeline immediately after it was placed, or in the growing scour ...

Predicting maximum scour depth around bridge abutment using M5 model [PDF]
Scour around piers and abutments leads to a lot of bridge failures. Scouring around the bridge piers and abutments is one of the most important factors in bridge failure which happens over time and increases during floods, probably causing general damage
