A key component of renewable energy, offshore wind energy, is becoming increasingly
important in the transformation of the global energy system and heading in the direction of …

In the present study, the effect of collar on temporal scour depth variation at the base of a
collar-protected circular pier was investigated. Experimental results revealed that a collar …

Exocultured biopolymers are ecofriendly soil-stabilisation agents with superior particle
bonding, hydrogel-formation characteristics and zero endoculture duration. However, the …

In this paper reduction of scour around group of two and three piers using circular collar has
been carried out for the case of clear-water flow over uniform sediment. The efficiency of …

Scour-induced sediment erosion poses a significant threat to the safety and longevity of
infrastructure, including bridges, wind turbines, elevated buildings, and coastal …

Experiments on clear-water scour below underwater pipelines (initially laid on the sediment
bed) in uniform and nonuniform sediments under steady flow were conducted. Equilibrium …

Obstacles in fluvial environments cause flow separation and the emergence of three-
dimensional flow fields that can lead to scour and deposition, even when no general …

Scouring around bridge abutments is a crucial and complex process that sometimes may
lead to the failure of the bridge abutment. Therefore, in the present research, scouring …

Flume experiments have been carried out under clear water scour conditions to analyze the
maximum equilibrium scour depth and scour processes in armored streambeds. A total of 85 …

Bridge piers having a nonuniform cross section over their height are termed as compound
bridge piers. Mostly circular piers resting on large diameter wells or caissons (termed here …
