Effect of Collars and Bars in Reducing the Local Scour Around Cylindrical Bridge Piers
In the present work, the efficiency of single and double collar in reducing scour rate and depth around cylindrical bridge piers was studied experimentally. In order to reduce the strength of wake vortices, different numbers of bars were also installed at the downstream face of the pier in combination with a single collar. The best result was achieved for double collar when the collars were ins...
متن کاملPrediction of scour depth around bridge piers using Gaussian process
A reliable prognostics framework is essential to prevent catastrophic failure of bridges due to scour. In the U.S., scour accounts for almost 60% of bridge failures. Currently available techniques in the literature for predicting scour are mostly based on empirical equations and deterministic regression models, like Neural Networks and Support Vector Machines, and do not predict the evolution o...
متن کاملExperimental Investigation of Scour Hole Geometry around Circular Bridge Piers
Failure of the bridges due to local scour around their piers can cause serious life losses and property damages and create significant environmental problems. In this experimental study, scour hole geometry around circular bridge piers were investigated. The experiments were carried out in a rectangular flume 80 cm wide, 18.6 m long and 75 cm high by using uniform sediment with a median diamete...
متن کاملTime Development of Local Scour around Semi Integral Bridge Piers and Piles in Malaysia
Scouring around a bridge pier is a complex phenomenon. More laboratory experiments are required to understand the scour mechanism. This paper focused on time development of local scour around piers and piles in semi integral bridges. Laboratory data collected at Hydraulics Laboratory, University of Malaya was analyzed for this purpose. Tests were performed with two different uniform sediment si...
متن کاملRetrofitting of Bridge Piers against the Scour Damages: Case Study of the Marand-Soofian Route Bridge
Bridge piers which are constructed in the track of high water rivers cause some variations in the flow patterns. This variation mostly is a result of the changes in river sections. Decreasing the river section, bridge piers significantly impress the flow patterns. Once the flow approaches the piers, the stream lines change their order, causing the appearance of different flow patterns around th...
