Scour in bed material downstream weirs is considered the most unfavorable process which threats the overall stability of the weir. Weirs with oblique angle in the horizontal plan will affect the scour profile downstream the structure and may reduce it. The objective of this paper is to investigate the effect of oblique weir angle on the scour profile. Furthermore, the effect of V-notch angle on...

One of the most important factors in determining the depth of foundations in structures adjacent to the water flow is the scouring phenomenon; the scouring is a phenomenon caused by the interactions between water flow and erodible bed materials, which causes the removal of sediments where hydraulic structures are located, including bridge piers. Every year, a great number of bridges are damaged...

The modeling of flood-induced bend scour near embankment toes can provide important information for river engineering, embankment safety warnings, and emergency action management. During the rainy seasons, short-term general scour and bend scour are the most common causes for the failure of reinforced concrete embankments in Taiwan. To gain a deeper understanding of the scouring process near le...
