Scour of sediments around bridge foundations by the stream is the most significant
contributing factor for bridge failures. The scour failures tend to occur without prior warning …

Local clear-water scour tests were performed with three different diameter circular piles
(0.114, 0.305, and 0.914 m), three different uniform cohesionless sediment diameters (0.22 …

Pile groups have become more popular in structural designs due to economical and
geotechnical reasons. It is also known that scour as the main cause of bridge failure can …

Local clear-water and live-bed scour tests were performed for a range of water depths and
flow velocities with two different uniform cohesionless sediment diameters (0.27 and 0.84 …

New long-duration clear-water scour data were collected at single cylindrical piers with the
objective of investigating the effect of sediment coarseness, D p/D 50 (D p= pier diameter; D …

Local scour around pile foundations is a major factor affecting the foundation stability in
ocean engineering. A series of experiments has been conducted to study the time …

The equilibrium scour depth at uniform single bridge piers depends on a large number of
variables, including the pier horizontal cross-section shape and its alignment angle towards …

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 …

A comprehensive review of the local scour due to vortical flow around a cylindrical bridge
pier under steady current is presented in this paper. The mechanism of the formation of …

An extensive database of laboratory tests, both in-house and published in literature, was
used to fit a new equilibrium scour depth formula for combined current-and-waves. This …
