Scouring depends on several factors, including the water flow of artificial obstacles, sections, piers, and foundations, the disturbance of bed materials, and soil permeability. The other factors are the non-parallelism between piers and the water flow, ...

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...
