A study of scour below Ruskin Dam spillway using a non-cohesive bed hydraulic model

Hydraulic models, using either cohesive or non-cohesive beds, have traditionally been employed to gauge scour below a spillway. Empirical equations, based on world-wide prototype and model experience, have been developed for estimating scour depth depth. In this study both the hydraulic modelling...
