Scour Protection around Offshore Wind Turbines: Monopiles [PDF]

Scour and Erosion, 2010
The flow processes in a scour protection around a mono-pile in steady current is described in relation to transport of sediment in the scour protection based on physical model tests. Transport of sediment in the scour protection may cause sinking of the scour protection. This may reduce the stability of the mono-pile and change for instance the natural
