Numerical Analysis of Masonry Arch Bridges Subject to Scour Effect
The aim of this paper is to investigate the problem of flood-induced erosion on masonry arch bridges by examining the case of the Cesano River Bridge. A multi-span masonry arch bridge located between the provinces of Ancona and Pesaro-Urbino in Italy, which suffered the collapse of two of its spans due to localized erosion in the foundation during the flooding that occurred in January 2011 and consecutively leading to the collapse of the other spans in the following months. The objective of this study is to simulate by advanced numerical modelling the collapse mechanism of the bridge and to evaluate the level of erosion that led the bridge to failure.
