Hydrodynamic and Debris-Damming Failure of Bridge Decks and Piers in Steady Flow
In countries with steep rivers, such as Japan and the United States, bridges fail on an annual basis. Bridges on spread footings are especially susceptible to failure by hydrodynamic loading, often exacerbated by debris damming. Here, such failures are investigated via small scale model laboratory e...
