Monopiles are important structures in offshore wind engineering, primarily serving as
foundations for wind turbines. When installed on a sandy seabed, local scour around …

Existing prediction formulas for clear-water scour development are typically empirical fittings
of lab-scale results. However, it is unreasonable to evaluate the in-situ clear-water scour …

Predicting scour depth around bridge piers is challenging due to the involvement of various
uncertain factors and complex processes, making it difficult to obtain accurate results using …

The paper presents three dimensional simulations of scour around a pair of piles arranged
side-by-side configurations under combined wave–current flow conditions using a …

The currently available prediction formulas for the scour development around a pile
predominantly rely on empirical fittings, lacking clear physical mechanisms. This study …

Pile foundations for offshore wind turbines are subjected to large lateral loads. By mounting
wings on the perimeter of regular monopiles, winged monopiles have shown better …

Local scour around offshore wind turbine foundations presents a considerable challenge
due to its potential influence on structural stability, driven by hydrodynamic forces. While …

Previous flume observations on the response of pore pressure in the seabed induced by the
combined wave‐current were mainly limited to relatively deep‐water waves with …

This work conducts large scale (1: 13) experiments to study local scour around a monopile
under combined irregular wave and current condition. The Keulegan–Carpenter (KC) …

Groups of bluff bodies are widespread in nature and technology. These are the supports of
bridge crossings, high-rise buildings in cities, offshore drilling and wind platforms, algae and …
