Scour depth beneath a pipeline undergoing forced vibration

This paper studies the coupling effect of the pipeline vibration on the seabed scour. A vertical two-dimensional model is applied to numerically investigate the local scour below a vibrating pipeline with different amplitudes and periods. Using the scour underneath a fixed pipeline as a reference, t...
