Bridge scour : climate change effects and modelling uncertainties
Scour of bridge piers and abutments has been identified as the main cause of bridge collapse around the world. Undermining of bridge foundations occurs by river sediment removal which may lead to loss of their load bearing capacity. Long-term climate change arising from global warming has the potent...
