Effects of flow intensity on local scour around a submerged square pile in a steady current

The Physics of Fluids, 2022
Local scour around submerged square piles is very common in offshore and coastal engineering and can result in pile failure. In the study reported here, because the flow intensity (the ratio of the depth-averaged velocity to the threshold velocity for ...

Bridge pier geometry effects on local scour potential: A comparative study

Ocean Engineering, 2021
Scour, or the localized loss of soil around the foundation, is a dominant factor contributing to failure. Scour at bridge piers, columns of elevated buildings, and wind turbines with monopile foundations can cause damage after flooding and natural ...

Scour protection assessment of monopile foundation design for offshore wind turbines

Ocean Engineering, 2021
The driven monopile is the most common foundation type for all installed offshore wind turbines. These monopiles are often subject to scour phenomena, which cause a reduction in foundation strength and stiffness.

Bridge Pier Scour: An overview of factors affecting the phenomenon and comparative evaluation of selected models

, 2021
Scour, defined by the loss of geomaterials surrounding a foundation support system, is a primary cause of bridge failure in the United States and worldwide.

Scour protections of collar around a monopile foundation in steady current

Applied Ocean Research, 2021
An experimental study on scour protection around a monopile foundation in steady current was carried out with the adoption of collar base and collar column. Through the analysis of scouring features, the effectiveness of the collar base and collar column

Experimental study of scour around pile groups in steady flows

, 2020
This paper presents comprehensive experimental results of scour around pile groups with different pile arrangements under different steady flow conditions, with the main aim of analyzing the influence of pile spacing (G/D) and Froude number (Fr).
