Abstract: The SRICOS method was proposed in 1999 to predict the scour depth versus time curve at a cylindrical bridge pier for a constant velocity flow, a uniform soil, and a deep-water condition. In this article, the method is ...

Abstract: Scour is the number one cause of bridge failures. Scour in coarse grained soils (sand, gravel) is relatively well known, but scour in fine grained soils (silt, clay) and weak rock is not. In coarse grained soils, scour ...
