Down-flow and horseshoe vortex characteristics of sediment embedded bridge piers

The flow around bridge structures is a recent research topic, given the significance of bridges as basic engineering infrastructures. This study investigates the internal flow features around circular bridge piers by Particle Image Velocimetry applied both in the horizontal and vertical planes and t...
