The present study investigates the scour at vertical-wall abutments under a strong current-
dominated combined wave-current and current-only environment using experiments and …

Caisson foundation is widely used to support the long-span bridge, while the local scour is
exacerbated due to the large volume of the caisson. A novel design, named “skirted …

In the marine environment, bridges are exposed to long-term foundation scour and structural
corrosion. Consideration of scour and corrosion effects is of crucial importance for the …

Bridge collapses, which are frequently caused by scouring or other hydraulic complexities,
have disastrous socioeconomically consequences. Accordingly, this paper offers clear water …

Monopile foundations are the most common foundation type for offshore wind turbines.
Local scour and scour protection around piles in the marine environment are major …

Complex vortex flow patterns around bridge piers, especially during floods, cause scour
process that can result in the failure of foundations. Abutment scour is a complex three …

Local scour induced by tidal flow is a major hazard for sea-crossing bridge foundations in
coastal areas. The irregular tidal flow and silt-muddy seabed environment generates a very …

Local scour around submerged square piles is very common in offshore and coastal
engineering and can result in pile failure. In the study reported here, because the flow …

In this study, the local scour of cohesive sediment bed at the pile subjected to lateral
vibration was investigated experimentally. The experiments were carried out in a …

The present study employs numerical simulations to investigate vertical wall abutment scour
with different aspect ratios (B/L, where B is the abutment length in the flow direction, and L is …
