Abstract: Scouring in bank toe is the main factor that resulted in destroying in bank- protection works. In this paper, part of bank-protection works in ChangJiang River was taken as prototype. Through simplified physical experiments in fixed bed and movable bed, the flow characteristics in bank toe and mechanisms of bank toe scouring for several types of common bank-protection works were investigated.
