Numerical investigation of wave-induced local scour around a submarine pipeline

open access: yes, 2014
A two-dimensional numerical model is developed in this work to predict the local scour around subsea pipelines induced by the orbital fluid motion due to free-surface water waves. Instead of being simplified as an oscillatory flow, the motion of the wave

On local scouring downstream small water structures

open access: yesPeerJ, 2020
Background In order to regulate water flow, hydraulic structures such as weirs or checks, frequently equipped with gates, are used. Water can flow below or over the gate or, simultaneously, over and below the gate.

Local Scour at Bridge Abutments

open access: yesJournal of King Abdulaziz University-Engineering Sciences, 1998
This paper presents the results of an experilnental investigation of local scour at bridge abutment models of three common shapes placed in laboratory flume with uniform sand with d)l) =0.775 mm. The 1l1uximum scour depths and extent of scour were determined corresponding to clear water conditions.

Study on the Mechanism of Local Scour Around Bridge Piers

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Local scour around bridge piers poses significant challenges to the stability and safety of bridge structures. Local scour results from the combined effects of increased longitudinal flow velocity, the direct impact of the flow in front of the pier, and ...

Studying the effect of partial blockage on multi-vents bridge pier scour experimentally and numerically

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal, 2018
The local scour depth at bridge supports due to partial blockage on front of multi-vents bridge pier is studied experimentally and numerically. The existence of blockage such as debris and industrial wastes, leads to increase the local scour depth around

Deformation Analysis of Large Diameter Monopiles of Offshore Wind Turbines under Scour

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
The displacement of monopile supporting offshore wind turbines needs to be strictly controlled, and the influence of local scour can not be ignored. Using p–y curves to simulate the pile–soil interaction and the finite difference method to calculate ...

Experimental Study on Local Scour at the Monopile Foundation of an Offshore Wind Turbine under the Combined Action of Wave–Current–Vibration

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Monopile foundations are the most widely used offshore wind turbine foundations. The experiments were conducted to investigate the influencing factors of local scour around the monopile under the action of wave–current–vibration.
