Scour related to bridge hydraulics received much attention in the past decade, including its
relation to flood hydrology and hydraulic processes in addition to steady flow. This paper …

Spur dike has been widely used as one of the river training structures to increase the
stability of riverbanks and embankments. Scour around spur dikes affects their hydraulic …

This research intends to clarify the limitations of a local scour equation recently proposed,
based on extended laboratory data collected at VAW, Zurich, Switzerland. The present …

The flow around bridge structures is a recent research topic, given the significance of
bridges as basic engineering infrastructures. This study investigates the internal flow …

Spur dikes are river training structures that have been extensively used worldwide for
