Abstract:Scouring is a major concern affecting the overall stability and safety of a bridge. The current research investigated the effectiveness of the various artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, such as artificial neural networks (ANNs), the adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), and random forest (RF), for scouring depth prediction around a bridge abutment. This study attempted to make a comparative analysis between these AI models and empirical equations developed by various researchers. The current res… Show more
