Description
Summary:The topic of scouring has received a large amount of attention at both the academic research level, elucidating the processes and developing predictive formulae, and at the practical level, where the potential and likely extent of scour around a specific structure has been studied as part of engineering works. Scour at Marine Structures brings together the research results and the practical findings to provide practitioners and researchers with a state-of-the-art review of scour by waves and currents, and it provides methodologies to assess the potential for scour and the extent of scour at a given coastal or offshore site.
