Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2019 in the subject Physics - Mechanics, University of Engineering & Technology Peshawar, language: English, abstract: The objective of the study is to conduct laboratory model testing to investigate and compare scour hole depth of the diamond, square and elliptical scaled model of bridge piers in a cohesion less bedding material under clear water and to propose the most efficient cross section of the bridge pier, having less Local scour around piers under steady clear-water condition was studied experimentally for a variety of configuration, including different sizes and shapes of piers. Total number of forty experiments were performed in the flume using diamond, square and elliptical shape. The scouring around the square shape was found maximum and at elliptical shape was the least. The main reason was obstruction in flow area that was more in case of the square and less in case of the elliptical shape. However, the diamond shaped has the intermediate scouring under same condition. Local scour is a complex phenomenon involving three-dimensional flow, typically developed around piers founded in movable bed rivers. Local scour can lead to partial failure or to collapse of bridge piers because of the high flood velocity. The cost of large bridges, with common and special complex piers, justifies carrying out an accurate prediction of scour depth, for both economic and safety reasons, which in turn leads to the interest of hydraulic engineers in predicting the equilibrium scour depth.

This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Local scour around piers and abutments is one of the main causes of the collapse of many bridges constructed inside rivers. Many researchers have conducted various studies to predict the maximum depth of a scour hole around bridge piers and abutments. However, most of them have been done in small-scale laboratory flumes and specifically for the open channel condition. Besides, most of the existing research on bridge piers uses uniform sediment which is not an appropriate representative of natural river systems. This can result in excessively conservative design values for scour in low risk or non-critical hydrologic conditions. The most severe cases of bridge pier scouring occur in cold regions when the surface of water turns into ice in which, an additional boundary layer is being added to the water surface, which leads to significant changes in the flow field and scour pattern around bridge piers. Ice cover also causes the maximum flow velocity to move closer to the channel bed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Local scour is considered to be one of the main causes of bridge failure and collapse. Laboratory experiments are a crucial and important approach for the scour process investigation. Yet, there is no robust and standard instrumentation for tracking the evolution of this physical phenomenon in laboratory studies. There are several flume-based studies of scour around a circular bridge pier on cohesionless soil. However, the bed of natural alluvial channels often contains cohesive sediments. Comparatively, there is a limited research on local scour around circular pier founded in cohesive beds that has been documented. In this PhD research, a 3D Laser Scanner is used to monitor scour around a circular pier. The results obtained with this technique, in line with previous research, in particular that carried out on a sandy bed, demonstrate its effectiveness. The technique offers advantages such as continuous spatiotemporal monitoring, but also many limitations. In a next step, the study focused on the effect of the type and proportion of fines in the sediment mixture on the depth and the shape of the scour hole and the temporal propagation of scour process around a circular pier. Results show that increasing the clay in the fine fraction reduce significantly the scour. The mixture with a range around 7.5-10 % of clay fines content provides the threshold composition for coherent soil behavior in scouring process. In addition, scour depth prediction for bridge piers in cohesive soil is not yet fully developed. In engineering practice, scour depth estimation methods currently used are those proposed for sand bed. Many researches aimed to adress a method to optimize the design of bridge piers in the case of cohesive soil. Among the different methods, the one based on the use of the EFA (Erosion Function Apparatus) erodimeter and called SRICOS (Scour Rate In COhesive Soil) was examined as part of this work in order to predict the deepest scour in cohesive bed.
Book Synopsis Scour Around Circular Bridge Piers at High Froude Numbers by : Subhash Chandra Jain
Download or read book Scour Around Circular Bridge Piers at High Froude Numbers written by Subhash Chandra Jain and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The results of laboratory experiments on scour around circular piers in cohesionless bed material at high Froude numbers, F, up to 1.5 are presented. The scour depths in sediment transport regime (F is greater than F sub c) first slightly decreases and then increases with the increase in the Froude number. A formula to predict the scour depth at Froude numbers (F-F sub c) is equal to or greater than 0.15, is developed. The limitations of some of the existing predictors of local scour are discussed, and a new formula to predict the maximum clearwater scour is proposed.

Download or read book Evaluation of Bridge-scour Data at Selected Sites in Ohio written by K. S. Jackson and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scour data collected during 1989-1994 were evaluated to determine whether pier scour and contraction scour occurred at 22 bridge sites in Ohio. Pier-scour depths computed from selected pier-scour prediction equations were compared with measured pier-scour depths, and the accuracy of the prediction equations were evaluated. Observed pier-scour relations were compared to similar relations developed through laboratory research. Mean streambed elevations were evaluated to determine the depth of contraction scour. Channel stability was assessed by use of mean streambed elevations at the approach section. Ground-penetrating radar was used at all sites to investigate the presence of historical scour.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Local scour around bridge foundations has been recognized as one of the main causes of bridge failures. The objective of this study is to investigate the relationships among field, laboratory, and numerical data for the purpose of improving scour prediction methods for complex bridge piers. In this study, three field sites in Georgia were selected for continuous monitoring and associated laboratory models were fabricated with physical scale ratios that modeled the full river and bridge cross sections to consider the effect of river bathymetry and bridge geometry. Three different sizes of sediment and several geometric scales of the bridge pier models were used in this study to investigate the scaling effect of relative sediment size, which is defined as the ratio of the pier width to the median sediment size. The velocity field for each bridge model was measured by the acoustic Doppler velocimeter (ADV) to explain the complicated hydrodynamics of the flow field around bridge piers as guided by the results from a numerical model. In each physical model with river bathymetry, the comparison between the results of laboratory experiments and the measurements of prototype bridge pier scour showed good agreement for the maximum pier scour depth at the nose of the pier as well as for the velocity distribution upstream of each bridge pier bent. Accepted scour prediction formulae were evaluated by comparison with extensive laboratory and field data. The effect of relative sediment size on the local pier scour depth was examined and a modified relationship between the local pier scour depth and the relative sediment size was presented. A useful methodology for designing physical models was developed to reproduce and predict local scour depth around complex piers considering Froude number similarity, flow intensity, and relative sediment size.
