We are pleased to announce the Special Issue #4 of Volume #7 of the International Journal of Geoengineering Case Histories, an official Journal of the International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE).
This Special Issue of the ISSMGE International Journal of Geoengineering Case Histories, edited by Guest Editor Prof. Shinji Sassa, ISSMGE TC213 Chair, presents six well-documented case studies that covers a broad range of scour and erosion, from road embankment scour and erosion to river bridge scour with their countermeasures, coastal erosion, scour and internal erosion, and marine scour at/around offshore structures, from America, Europe, Asia, and Oceania.
Papers published in this refereed journal are freely available in color and are accompanied by databases that include the electronic data presented in the paper as well as additional figures (as necessary). The locations of the case histories are also positioned in the IJGCH Geographic Database.
