A key component of renewable energy, offshore wind energy, is becoming increasingly
important in the transformation of the global energy system and heading in the direction of …

Scour induced by currents is one of the main causes of the bridge failure in rivers.
Fundamental knowledge and mechanisms on scour processes due to currents are often …

Comprehensive reference covering the design of foundations for offshore wind turbines As
the demand for “green” energy increases the offshore wind power industry is expanding at a …

In most of the previous studies on local scour around pile foundations, wave-induced pore
pressure response has not been taken into account. The local-scour and pore-pressure …

A fully-coupled hydrodynamic/morphodynamic numerical model is presented and utilized for
the simulation of wave-induced scour and backfilling processes beneath submarine …

This study utilizes three-dimensional simulations to investigate scour in combined wave–
current flows around rectangular piles with various aspect ratios. The simulation model …

This study continues the investigation of flow and scour around a vertical pile, reported by
Roulund et al.(2005). Flow and scour/backfilling around a vertical pile exposed to waves are …

Submerged pile foundation have been widely used in ocean. Plenty of promising research
concentrate on local scour around mono-pile or pile groups. Yet submerged situation …

The offshore wind power industry has significantly contributed to the production of green
energy in China and Europe etc. and made significant contributions to the reduction of …

When building offshore wind turbines with monopile foundations, scour protection typically is
placed to avoid scouring of the soil close to the monopile. An important aspect is that the …
