Experimental Study of Flow Characteristics and Geometry of Scour Hole around Cylindrical Piers Subject to Wave and Current
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Scour is a significant contributing factor to bridge failures, and when a bridge fails, it totally or partially loses its serviceability, causing fatalities, delays in emergency transportation and evacuation efforts, and ...
Evaluation of Countermeasures for Hydraulic Loading on Bridges
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Stream-crossing bridges are critical components of the surface transportation system, allowing for the safe and efficient movement of people and goods. However, these bridges may be subjected to extreme hydraulic loading ...
Boundary Shear Stress in an Ice-Covered River during Breakup
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: River ice complicates river hydraulics and morphodynamics by adding a new boundary layer to the top of the flow. This boundary layer affects the velocity distribution throughout the depth due to increased flow resistance, ...
