CASE STUDY: IMPROVE SCOUR RISK ASSESSMENTS AT BRIDGE PIERS BY ESTIMATING EFFECTS AND HYDRODYNAMIC ACTIONS FROM ACCUMULATIONS OF WOODY DEBRIS
Diego Panici conducted his PhD through the CDT-SIS at the University of Southampton focusing on the accumulations of woody debris at bridge piers. Woody debris can exert structural forces on bridge piers, block a substantial portion of the channel causing increased flood risk, and can exacerbate scour at the pier foundation that can result in …

Formation, Growth, and Failure of Debris Jams at Bridge Piers
Research Article Diego Panici Gustavo A. M. de Almeida First published in Water Resources Research for American Geophysical Union AGU: 24 August 2018 https://doi.org/10.1029/2017WR022177 Abstract The accumulation of large wood debris around bridge piers obstructs the flow, producing increased upstream water levels, large horizontal structural loadings, and flow field modifications that can considerably exacerbate scour.
