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...

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, ...

Waves or tsunamis in the onshore area could induce severe scour at the structure foundations, threatening the stability of the structure. This paper presents a numerical study of the solitary wave-induced flow and scour around a square onshore structure....

Military activity has resulted in unexploded ordnance (UXO) existing in the nearshore. Understanding and predicting UXO behavior is important for object identification, and management. Here, two studies (laboratory and fieldwork) have been conducted to o...

Local scour holes are erosional bed structures that are related to different scientific disciplines in Earth science and hydraulic engineering. Local scouring at naturally placed boulders is ubiquitous, but many competing factors make it difficult to iso...

The environmental effects of ship propellers were not even close to fully examined before the current massive ships were introduced to sea trade. Larger ships, result in greater length, beam, draft and propulsion power. Of concern here is the under-keel ...

Spur dikes are river protection structures typically used for flow diversion from erodible banks. However, scouring might be a severe problem that compromises their stability and, consequently, their hydraulic function. This paper aims to study the maxim...

The numerical modeling of sediment transport under wave impact is challenging because of the complex nature of the triple wave?structure?sediment interaction. This study presents three-dimensional numerical modeling of sediment scouring due to non-breaki...
