In this study a new approach was proposed to determine optimum parameters of a protective
spur dike to mitigate scouring depth amount around existing main spur dikes. The studied …

Scour phenomenon around a series of impermeable, nonsubmerged spur dikes has been
investigated with both experimental and numerical methods. The experiments were …

The current work uses an experimental method to analyse a multiscale statistical
assessment of scour depth surrounding the spur dikes with downward seepage. The …

River bank erosion can upset the balance of the river and its aquatic habitat, as well as the
lands and facilities adjacent to the river. As hydraulic structures, spur dikes are constructed …

Spur dikes are used to protect river banks from erosion and also keep the main mitigation
channel. Different additional structures such as “collar” and “protective spur dike” are used …

Local scour around bridge piers and abutments is one of the most significant causes of
bridge failure. Despite a plethora of studies on scour around individual bridge piers or …

Spur dikes are structures built along riverbanks that serve two purposes: stabilizing the
banks and minimizing erosion risk by controlling water flow in the river channel. The current …

Scouring around spur dikes, which are popular guide bank structures, is a major concern for
hydraulic engineers. Collars are protective palates which are used to reduce the local …

River protection structures, especially spur dikes, play a vital role in the hydrodynamic and
morphological changes in a river system. Since the earliest days, numerous studies have …

This piece of research simulated the flow pattern around a T-shaped spur dike in the vicinity
of attractive and repelling protective structures in a 90° bend using computational fluid …
