abstract

scoure is the removal of particle sediment which results variation of flow pattern. local scour is considered as one of the reasons of instability and ultimately failure of bridges.therefore, proposing some controlling methods to reduce this phenomenon is essential. in the study, effects of two types of squar and circular collar on a single cylindrical model have been investigated. in the next step by providing a slot through the pier and combination of collar and slot was used to investigate the scouring reduction. the results showed that use of both collar, specically below bed level decreased the scour depth. square collar was more effective than circular in decreasing the scour depth. combination of slot and collar on the pier could further reduce the scouring depth in which a square collar with w/d=2.5 in the bed with a slot near the bed reduce scouring depth up to 80 percent consequence

Investigating Effect of Netted Collars on Scouring Around Bridge Piers Using Flow-3D

The present study used Flow-3D to investigate the effect of installing netted collars with different shapes on bridge piers. The results showed that installing netted triangular, circular, square, and rectangular collars with a hole diameter of 0.1 (d/D) reduced scouring by 49.5, 52.2, 52.7, and 56.5 percent, respectively, compared to the case with no collars. A hole diameter of 0.15 (d/D) for ...

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...

investigation of control methods on local scouring around the bridge piers

scouring is the removal of sediment particles resulted from variations of flow pattern. local scour is considered among the reasons of instability and ultimately failure of bridges. during the past decades, different methods were proposed against local scour at bridge piers. these methods can be broadly classified into two categories: flow-altering and bed-armoring methods. each method can be c...

study on scouring around bridge piers protected by collar using low density sediment

the efficiency of a collar in reducing the scour depth around circular and rectangular piers is studied at different flow intensities (ratio of upstream shear stress to sediment critical shear stress). rectangular piers aligned with the flow as well as skewed at 5º, 10º, 20º were examined. previous studies had shown that with collar the equilibrium time of scouring increases considerably. to re...

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...

3D Numerical Study on Scouring Around Bridge Piers Under Unsteady Flow Condition

Local scouring around the bridges piers has always been considered as a problem, especially in rivers. If we do not take the necessary actions to avoid the occurrence of this phenomenon or to reduce its influence, then the bridge's piers will be destroyed. Placing the bridge piers' foundation far from the earth's surface will turn out in a plan which is not economic at all. Experimental studies...
