Abstract: The lift force on a moving, heavy particle at the instant when the particle is drawn upwards from near the bottom is been experimentally determined for both smooth and rough-bottom cases in a turbulent open-channel flow. ...

Abstract: This paper presents the results of an experimental study on scour around a pile subject to combined waves and current. Irregular waves were used in the experiments, which were carried out both for codirectional waves and ...

Abstract: An experimental study on the control of scour at vertical circular piles under monochromatic waves and a steady current is presented. The experiments on wave and steady currents were carried out under live-bed and clear-water ...

Abstract: This paper summarizes the results of an experimental study on scour around spherical bodies and self-burial in steady current and in waves. The equilibrium scour depth below a fixed sphere in steady current for live-bed ...

Abstract: This paper summarizes the results of an experimental investigation on wave scour around a circular pile in three kinds of soil, namely in dense silt (with a relative density of

Abstract: This paper presents the results of an experimental study on liquefaction around a pipeline buried in a soil exposed to a progressive wave. The soil used in the experiments was silt with

Abstract: This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation on suction removal of sediment from between armor blocks/stones placed on a loose bed. The process of suction has been investigated. It was found that the ...
