The experiments were<br />conducted for the velocity of incipient motion for bed sediment movement and bed size diameter of<br />0.91 mm (D50) and standard deviation of 1.38. The effect of protective spur dike on the flow pattern<br />around the spur dikes was investigated in a rigid bed too. The experiments showed that the proper<br />design of protective spur dike can significantly mitigate maximum scour depth around the main spur<br />dikes. In particular, the protective spur dike with Lp/Lf =0.8, X/Lf=2, B=45° decreased an average of<br />76.6 percent of scour depth around the spur dikes. The maximum decrease of scour depth around the<br />first spur dike (74.7 percent) was obtained by applying the protective spur dike with Lp/Lf=0.8,<br />X/Lf=2.5, B=90°. https://jhyd.iha.ir/article_85455_406fa7bacfad550836443d9baa1adccf.pdf
