Scour below submerged skewed pipeline

Journal of Hydrology, 2014
Summary Local scour below pipelines commonly occurs due to the erosive action of currents and waves. Scour is a major cause for the failure of underwater pipelines which is very important in water resources management. In this study, experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of four different pipeline orientations (30°, 45°, 60° and 90 ...

Modelling Changes to Submarine Pipeline Embedment and Stability due to Pipeline Scour

open access: yesVolume 5: Pipelines, Risers, and Subsea Systems, 2018
In this paper a beam bending model is combined with existing predictive formulas for pipeline scour to study changes to pipeline stability during scour and lowering. The model is introduced and demonstrated for a range of simplified conditions, including scour-induced lowering of a pipeline resulting from multiple uniformly spaced scour initiation ...

Mechanics of Pipeline Scour Propagation in the Spanwise Direction

Journal of Waterway, Port, Coastal and Ocean Engineering, 2015
AbstractThis paper presents the results of an experimental study on the mechanics of pipeline scour propagation in the spanwise direction. The experiments were conducted with uniform sediment under a unidirectional steady current in clear-water conditions.

Modelling of Local Scour Below a Sagging Pipeline

Coastal Engineering Journal, 2003
Local scour below a sagging pipeline is modelled by coupling a fluid flow model with a morphological model of the seabed. The fluid flow model solves spatial-filtered two-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations closed with the standard Smagorinsky subgrid scale model.

Numerical Modeling of Local Scour Below a Piggyback Pipeline in Currents

open access: yesVolume 4: Terry Jones Pipeline Technology; Ocean Space Utilization; CFD and VIV Symposium, 2006
Local scour under two pipelines of different diameters in steady currents is investigated numerically. The two pipelines are arranged in the so-called piggyback configuration where the small pipeline is located directly above the large pipeline (as shown in Fig. 1).

Steady current induced seabed scour around a vibrating pipeline

open access: yesApplied Ocean Research, 2006
Most of the existing researches either focus on vortex-induced vibrations (VIVs) of a pipeline near a rigid boundary, or on seabed scour around a fixed pipeline.

Numerical investigation of local scour below a vibrating pipeline under steady currents

open access: yesCoastal Engineering, 2010
Local scour below a vibrating pipeline under steady current is investigated by a finite element numerical model. The flow, sediment transport and pipeline response are coupled in the numerical model.

Numerical investigation of local scour beneath a sagging subsea pipeline in steady currents

open access: yesCoastal Engineering, 2018
Two dimensional (2-D) numerical simulations are conducted to predict scour below the midsection of the suspended span of a pipeline that sags naturally into a scour pit. The deflection of the pipeline is calculated based on the suspension length (or span
