Scour holes in heterogeneous subsoil: An experimental study to improve knowledge of the development of scour holes in heterogeneous subsoil

In the Rhine-Meuse delta many scour holes are present. These scour holes form a potential risk on the surrounding bridges, levees, weirs, dikes and tunnels. In general, scour holes can develop when there is a local change in hydrodynamic conditions or erosive capacity. Extensive research has been done in the past on scour holes close to...
