In recent years, heavy rainfall disasters have caused frequent damage to bridge piers due scouring and resulted in the fall of bridges many areas Japan. The objective this study was investigate effect local around downstream on center river flowing at an angle piers. It found that when flows piers, area becomes wider from upstream because longer inhibition width positioned perpendicular water flow. depth tends be smaller than depth. addition, time onset tilting deformation increases with water.

Abstract. Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands were hit by extreme precipitation flooding in July 2021. This brief communication provides an overview of impacts to large-scale critical infrastructure systems how recovery has progressed. The results show that Germany particularly affected, with many assets severely damaged or completely destroyed. Impacts range from destroyed bridges sewage systems, schools hospitals. We find (large-scale) risk assessments, often focused on larger (river) flood events, do not these local, but severe, due failures. may be result limited availability validation material. As such, this only will help better understand can affected flooding, also used as material for future assessments.

Abstract. Bridges are critical-infrastructure components of road and rail transport networks. A large number these critical assets cross or adjacent to waterways floodplains therefore exposed flood actions such as scour, hydrodynamic loading, inundation, all which exacerbated by debris accumulations. These stressors widely recognized responsible for the vast majority bridge failures around world, they expected be due climate change. While efforts have been made increase robustness bridges hazard, many scientific technical gaps remain. were explored during an expert workshop that took place in April 2021 with participation academics, consultants, decision makers operating mainly United Kingdom specializing fields risk assessment management resilience.

Heritage bridges constitute an integral feature of the urban landscape in numerous cities. However, it is common for these structures to surpass their life cycle, rendering them ill-equipped withstand dynamic demands users and extreme events, particularly hydrological occurrences. This research presents a methodology assessment heritage riverine bridges, with focus on Grau Bridge Peru as case study. The investigation commences exhaustive literature review, complemented by historical examination, followed preliminary diagnosis. Subsequently, hydraulic studies are presented, encompassing drone surveys riverbed bridge, soil analyses, application 1D 2D models HEC-RAS. outcomes this comprehensive analysis reveal high vulnerability Bridge.

Scour-induced failures of bridges pose a global challenge, leading to significant economic and service losses. Compounded by infrequent inspections inadequate consideration hydro-geological factors in current scour risk assessments, this issue is particularly pressing the context climate change associated hazards. Addressing imperative for enhanced infrastructure resilience, study introduces framework management. Utilizing Geographic Information Systems (GIS) datasets applying Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) assess various weighted affecting risk, we have systematically mapped information layers encompassing structural, riverine, geological, flood conduct strategic susceptibility assessment. The proposed approach applied railway network southeast England, identifying scour-susceptible that can be prioritized detailed inspections. Compared existing scores, scores approximately 30 region were adjusted, with 22 transitioning from medium high priority. Our methodology, exemplified case study, offers asset managers deeper insights into determinants facilitates informed decision-making prioritizing scour-mitigation measures across network.
