"Once formed, debris jams can significantly contribute to structural failure and increased flood risk in different ways. First, the drag force that is exerted on the debris and transferred to the pier can be an order of magnitude larger than the corresponding drag exerted by the flow on the pier alone. Second, the reaction force applied by the debris on the flow, combined with the reduction in the flow area, is usually responsible for substantial increases in upstream flood levels (Gippel et al., 1996; Parola et al., 2000) often referred to as afflux. Third, the presence of debris further modifies the flow field and exacerbates scour (Lagasse et al., 2010; Melville & Dongol, 1992; Pagliara & Carnacina, 2011, 2013). Diehl (1997) indicates that debris accumulations at piers contribute to more than one third of bridge failures in the United States, and other examples of the relevance of debris-induced bridge failures around the world are also abundant (e.g., Benn, 2013)." ...
