This book presents fourteen state-of-the-art research papers prepared by research scientists and engineers around the world. They explore the subject of scour related to bridge piers, monopiles, propellers, turbines, weirs, dams, grade-control structures, and pipelines. Their works are based on three different research methodologies, namely experimental, numerical, and field approaches.

Technology: general issues --- seabed scour --- tidal current turbine --- ocean renewable energy --- ship twin-propeller --- jet --- scour --- 3D printing --- visible light communication system --- offshore wind turbine foundation --- early warning monitoring --- life cycle --- cylindrical pier --- local scour --- anti-scour collar --- bridge --- experiment --- scour protection --- scour development --- optimal design --- complex bridge pier --- pier-pier proximity --- temporal evolution --- equilibrium scour pattern --- bed-form migration --- scour predictor evaluation --- propeller jet --- confined propeller scour --- energy spectra --- turbulence --- vortex system --- downward seepage --- pier --- turbulent statistics --- bridge foundations --- supercritical flows --- sediment hydraulics --- two-phase flow --- pipeline --- numerical modeling --- turbulence modeling --- sediment transport --- clear-water scour --- submerged weir --- temporal development --- bed morphology --- bridge scour --- general scour --- grade control --- dredging --- reservoir sedimentation --- replenishment --- cohesive sediment --- horseshoe vortex --- pile scour --- waves and currents --- computational fluid dynamics --- REEF3D --- scour and erosion --- time scale of local scour --- blockage ratio --- research approaches
