Abstract: This study focused on the effect of the transversal bed slope on scouring at bridge piers. Twenty-four experiments were conducted, half of them being on a horizontal bed and the other half on inclined beds. Three inclination ...

Abstract: Gravel-bed rivers display a surface layer that is coarser than the substrate lining below this armored surface. The armored layer that is developed under certain flow conditions may be attributed as water-worked sediment ...

Abstract: The dynamic behavior of bed-load sediment transport under unsteady flow conditions is experimentally and numerically investigated. A series of experiments are conducted in a rectangular flume (18 m in length, 0.80 m in ...
