Abstract

The purpose of the project is to establish a better understanding of the development of scour at circular monopiles of offshore windturbines. The purpose of the model tests is to illuminate various aspects of scour developed under typical conditions but also to shed light on the influence on scour from various parameters thought to have a significant impact on scour. Furthermore it is the ambition to use the test results in a design situation.
