Characteristics of developing scour-holes at a sand-embedded 0.2 m diameter circular
cylinder are presented. Non-intrusive, high-resolution topographic measurements of …

The erosion process at a bridge abutment may be affected by the flow constriction when the
abutment occupies a significant part of the flume width. We devised a specific experimental …

Scour around bridge piers remains the leading cause of bridge failure induced in flood.
Floods and torrential rains erode riverbeds and damage cross-river structures, causing …

The scour of pile foundations significantly impacts the bridge structure safety. This study
proposes a three-dimensional (3D) non-contact scour pit depth measurement method …

Experimental results on scour at circular and square cylinders in uniform gravel under the
clear-water scour condition are presented. Nonintrusive, high-resolution topographic …

This paper presents the spatio-temporal variations in bed elevations and the near-bed
turbulence statistics over the deformed bed generated around the submerged cylindrical …

This paper introduces a sensor measuring the scour depth around the bridge based on the
theory of heat conduction. The heat dissipation rate is different in different, heat losses faster …

This paper introduces feasibility study of scour depth determination based on lateral soil
pressure measurement. The method is used for sensors which are made of fiber Bragg …

A new photogrammetric technique has been developed for monitoring the morphology of
evolving stream beds. A pair of commercial cameras is used to record the evolution of the …

Live-bed scour at a vertical-wall abutment is experimentally investigated with specific
attention paid to the conceptual issues concerning the temporal development of local scour …
