The secure operation of offshore wind turbines is at risk due to local scour. To mitigate this
risk, effective countermeasures can be implemented to either halt or slow the progression of …

Scour is one of the main causes of bridge failures. It accounts for about 60% of bridge
failures in the United States. Scour failures tend to occur suddenly without prior warning and …

Local scour at monopile foundations of offshore wind turbines is one of the most critical
structural stability issues. This article reviews the contemporary methods of scour …

In this research, dual submerged vanes have been installed in various arrangements to
reduce the bridge pier scour. The analysis results achieved from the FLOW-3D numerical …

During the past decades, several investigations were conducted to assess the adequacy of
countermeasures against local scour at bridge piers. The countermeasures can be broadly …

The paper briefly describes the mechanics of local scour process around bridge pier and
gives an in-depth review of the various techniques employed for local scour control and …

The current study presents a modified method to reduce the scour depth in front of the bridge
piers. The idea of this method is based on reducing the stagnation of the flow and vortex …

Sediment erosion in the region of bridge piers is a potential hazard to the safety of bridges.
The presence of various roughness heights on the surface of bridge piers as a scour …

Local scour is the most significant cause of bridge failure. Providing a short abutment with a
straight slot has proved to be an effective method for reducing scour at this abutment. In this …

The inherent scour process around the bridge piers needs to be considered and crucial to
ensure a sustainable and economical bridge design. The performance of any scour …
