Abstract
Since the first offshore wind farm had been built (Vindeby Lolland 1991) the dimensions of the turbines are rising quickly: by now the diameter of the rotor reaches 90m and the pile diameter exceeds 4m. Monopile foundations, preferred to gravity ones for large pile diameters and shallow waters, suffers from severe scour and the toe needs to be protected.
