Abstract:Scour is a phenomenon that affects structures deployed in rivers or seas, favoring the transport of sediments around their foundations, which can expose their structural stability. This work aimed to develop a physical model of a mobile bottom to determine the scour-hole extensions around a group of four vertical piles of circular sections subjected to irregular waves. For this purpose, a beach profile and a typical slope were constructed and subjected to 24 h of storm waves, divided into 12 h intervals in the… Show more
