چکیده

Many permanent spillway tunnels of high earth-rock dams are rebuilt from their diversion tunnels. Scour problem is focused because of their high water head and velocity. Energy Approach is a new method to Estimating Scour and is used here to estimate the depth of scour downstream of 1 spillway tunnel of Zipingpu Project. The method is illustrated working fine by comparing its results with data from model test and empirical formula, and its advantages and disadvantages are analyzed at last.

Practical Approach to Estimating Realistic Depths of Abutment Scour

Observations of bridge abutment scour lead to a practical new approach for estimating realistic scour IIHR-Hydroscience and Engineering depths at bridge abutments. Prior design approaches usually led to unrealistically deep estimates of abutment scour depth. The observations presented stem from flume experiments conducted with abutments with approach embankments subject to a range of erodibilit...

Estimating piping around bridge piers using the SSIIM software

Estimating maximum scour depth is normally required in order to determine the depth of  bridge piles. The present paper uses the SSIIM Software which considers flow and sediment equations in a three dimensional manner. The software models flow field around circular bridge pile by resolving Navier-Stokes three-dimensional equations and k-  method, and by temporary solution of flow field and cont...

Estimating of Scour in Downstream of the Water Level Regulation Structures

Scour in the downstream of hydraulic structures is a phenomenon which usually occurs due to exceeding the velocity or shear stress from a critical level. In this paper by using the laboratory data by Borman- Jouline and De-Agostino research, it was tried to get more accurate equations in order to calculate the maximum depth of scour in the downstream of the water level regulation structures. Co...

Effect of collar on time development and extent of scour hole around cylindrical bridge piers

An experimental approach was carried out to study the time development and extension of scouring around a circular pier protected by a collar. The experiments included the study of scouring around an unprotected pier as well as the pier protected with collars located at different levels. Width of collars was 3 times the pier diameter. It was found that with collars, though the scour depth and t...

Estimating scour below inverted siphon structures using stochastic and soft computing approaches

This paper uses nonlinear regression, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Genetic Programming (GP) approaches for predicting an important tangible issue i.e. scours dimensions downstream of inverted siphon structures. Dimensional analysis and nonlinear regression-based equations was proposed for estimation of maximum scour depth, location of the scour hole, location and height of the dune downs...
