Bridge pier scour is one of the main causes of bridge failure and a major factor that contributes to the total construction and maintenance costs of bridge. Recently, because of unexpected high water during extreme hydrologic events, the resilience and s...

The scouring effect is widely acknowledged as a primary contributor to the weakening in the bearing performance of offshore piles; it often results in asymmetric scour patterns around the pile. To meticulously examine the impact of three-dimensional asym...

In response to the deficiencies in existing bridge pier scour protection technologies, this paper introduces a novel protective device, namely a normal distribution-shaped surface (BND) protection devices formed by rotating a concave normal curve. A thre...

The present study employs numerical simulations to investigate vertical wall abutment scour with different aspect ratios (B/L, where B is the abutment length in the flow direction, and L is the abutment length transverse to the flow direction) under the ...

A three-dimensional large eddy simulation model is used to simulate the turbulent flow dynamics around a circular pier in live-bed and clear-water scour conditions. The Navier?Stokes equations are transformed into a ??

The three-dimensional scour beneath a partially-buried pipeline in regular waves was visualized using a miniature camera installed in a transparent pipeline. The scour mechanism was analyzed based on the results. Scour development was observed to start a...

In the past few decades, there have been many numerical studies on the scour around offshore pipelines, most of which concern two-dimensional setups, with the pipeline infinitely long and the flow perpendicular to the pipeline. Based on the Ansys FLUENT ...

The main goal of this study was comparing the performance of an open-source code OpenFOAM and a commercial software Ansys Fluent in simulating the turbulent flow through a scour hole developed in a sand bed channel, which helps to give a hint in choosing...

This paper reviews the recent development of numerical modelling of local scour around hydraulic and marine structures. The numerical models for simulating local scour are classified into five categories: sediment transport rate models, two-phase models,...

River bridge piers may collapse due to the local scour around their foundations. It is known that local scour is an effect of the three-dimensional flow field that develops near the pier and that the geometric complexity of a non-cylindrical pier may, co...
