	Hydrodynamic Scour lang=en, upright=1.3, Mechanism of formation, alt=sketch Hydrodynamic scour is the removal of sediment such as silt, sand and gravel from around the base of obstructions to the flow in the sea, rivers and canals. Scour, caused by fast flowing water, can carve out scour holes, compromising the integrity of a structure. It is an interaction between the hydrodynamics and the geotechnical properties of the substrate. It is a notable cause of bridge failure and a problem with most marine structures supported by the seabed in areas of significant tidal and ocean current. It can also affect biological ecosystems and heritage assets. Mechanism Any obstruction within flowing water will produce changes in velocity within the water column. The flow changes that occur in the vicinity of the substrate may cause differential movement in the bed materials near the obstruction. The magnitude of these changes varies with stream velocity, feature shape and substrate character. Generally the str ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
	Bridge Scour Bridge scour is the removal of sediment such as sand and gravel from around bridge abutments or piers. Hydrodynamic scour, caused by fast flowing water, can carve out '' scour holes'', compromising the integrity of a structure. In the United States, bridge scour is one of the three main causes of bridge failure (the others being collision and overloading). It has been estimated that 60% of all bridge failures result from scour and other hydraulic-related causes.Mark N.

picture info	Tidal Scour Tidal scour is "sea-floor erosion caused by strong tidal currents resulting in the removal of inshore sediments and formation of deep holes and channels". Examples of this hydrological process can be found globally. Two locations in the United States where tidal scour is the predominant shaping force is the San Francisco Bay and the Elkhorn Slough.Silberstein 1989 M, Campbell E. 1989. Elkhorn Slough. Monterey, CA: Monterey Bay Aquarium. 64 p. Tidal force can also contribute to bridge scour. Historical Perspective and Relevance Research on tidal scour is largely centered at Elkhorn Slough in California. The slough was directly exposed to tidal flux beginning in 1947 with the creation of the Moss Landing Harbor. Multiple studies have been done on the slough since tidal exposure to catalog the morphological change and determine how long it will take for the system to reach equilibrium. Formation Tidal scours are formed in tide-dominated deltas and estuaries with the changing ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
picture info	Seabed Gouging By Ice Seabed gouging by ice is a process that occurs when floating ice features (typically icebergs and sea ice ridges) drift into shallower areas and their keel comes into contact with the seabed.King 2011Palmer & Been 2011Barrette 2011 As they keep drifting, they produce long, narrow furrows most often called ''gouges'', or ''scours''.Wadhams 2000, p. 72Weeks 2010, Ch. 13 This phenomenon is common in offshore environments where ice is known to exist. Although it also occurs in rivers and lakes,Noble and Comfort 1982Grass 1984 it appears to be better documented from oceans and sea expanses.Palmer & Been 2011Wadhams 2000, p. 72Weeks 2010, Ch. 13 Seabed scours produced via this mechanism should not be confused with strudel scours. These result from spring run-off water flowing onto the surface of a given sea ice expanse, which eventually drains away through cracks, seal breathing holes, etc. The resulting turbulence is strong enough to carve a depression into the s ...

	Scour (band) Scour is an American black metal supergroup formed in 2015. It features vocalist Phil Anselmo (Pantera, Down), guitarists Derek Engemann (ex- Cattle Decapitation) and Mark Kloeppel (Misery Index), bassist John Jarvis ( Agoraphobic Nosebleed, ex-Pig Destroyer), and drummer Adam Jarvis (Pig Destroyer, Misery Index). History Scour's original lineup featured Anselmo, guitarist Derek Engemann, guitarist Chase Fraser, bassist John Jarvis, and drummer Jesse Schobel. The band debuted with the single "Dispatched" in 2016. The same year, they released their first EP, ''The Grey EP'', through Anselmo's Housecore Records. The group's second extended play, ''The Red EP'', followed in 2017. The title track and the song "Piles" were made available for streaming ahead of the release of the EP. After a hiatus, Scour returned in 2020 with ''The Black EP'', released through Housecore Records and Nuclear Blast. Released on November 27, 2020, the EP featured guest appearances from Erik Rutan ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]

picture info	Scouring (textiles) Scouring is a Wet process engineering, preparatory treatment of certain textile materials. Scouring removes soluble and insoluble impurities found in textiles as natural, added and adventitious impurities: for example, oils, waxes, fats, vegetable matter, as well as dirt. Removing these contaminants through scouring prepares the textiles for Finishing (textiles), subsequent processes such as bleaching and dyeing. Though a general term, "scouring" is most often used for wool. In cotton, it is synonymously called "boiling out", and in silk, and "boiling off. Purpose of scouring Scouring is an essential pre-treatment for the subsequent Textile finishing, finishing stages that include bleaching, dyeing, and printing. Raw and Greige goods, unfinished textiles contain a significant amount of impurities, both natural and foreign. It is necessary to eliminate these impurities to make the products ready for later steps in textile manufacturing. For instance, fatty substances and waxy m ...

picture info	Wool Wool is the textile fiber obtained from sheep and other mammals, especially goats, rabbits, and camelids. The term may also refer to inorganic materials, such as mineral wool and glass wool, that have some properties similar to animal wool. As an animal fiber, wool consists of protein together with a small percentage of lipids. This makes it chemically quite distinct from cotton and other plant fibers, which are mainly cellulose. Characteristics Wool is produced by follicles which are small cells located in the skin. These follicles are located in the upper layer of the skin called the epidermis and push down into the second skin layer called the dermis as the wool fibers grow. Follicles can be classed as either primary or secondary follicles. Primary follicles produce three types of fiber: kemp, medullated fibers, and true wool fibers. Secondary follicles only produce true wool fibers. Medullated fibers share nearly identical characteristics to hair and are long but ...
