Prediction of levee erosion rate during floodwall overtopping for materials with various plasticity indices is critical. Levee soil properties, and intensity or duration of flood are the contributing factors in erosion rate and scour depth predictions. In this study, over 15 laboratory scaled levee-floodwalls constructed of soils with plasticity indices of 0%, 6%, 9%, 30%, and 40% were overtopped. The floodwall scale of 1:20 is utilized assuming that a typical full-sized floodwall is 2.1m high. The erosion rates at the levee crest are measured and used to propose an erosion rate prediction model which considers the plasticity index (PI) and compaction level (CL) of soils.

Scour and Erosionincludes four keynote lectures from world leading researchers cutting across the themes of scour and erosion, together with 132 peer-reviewed papers from 34 countries, covering the principal themes of: - internal erosion - sediment transport - grain scale to continuum scale - advanced numerical modelling of scour and erosion - terrestrial scour and erosion- river and estuarine erosion including scour around structures, and - management of scour/erosion and sediment, including hazard management and sedimentation in dams and reservoirs. Scour and Erosionis ideal for researchers and industry working at the forefront of scour and erosion, and has applications in both the freshwater and marine environments.
