Abstract

This paper presents the results of bed scouring near an abutment that spans the entire floodplain width and terminates at the edge of the main channel, termed here as the bankline abutment. The cross section can be divided into a scoured section and an un-scoured section. The scoured bed profile can be approximated using a power function. An analytical method has been suggested to predict the maximum scour depth at bankline abutment. This method is valid irrespective of whether the original bed is at or below the threshold condition of sediment motion. The proposed method is consistent with the experiments from this study and previous studies.
