Abstract

In this paper bottom scours in front of vertical breakwaters by standing waves are systematically inves-tigated, the scouring patterns, criterion for differentiating the scouring patterns and scouring mechanism are discussed; a formula of maximum depth of scouring trough considering sediment size is given; and influence of mound foundation on bottom scours is investigated.
