Experimental Investigation of Scour Prediction Methods for Offshore Tripod and Hexapod Foundations

Scour prediction is essential for the design of offshore foundations. Several methods have been proposed to predict the equilibrium scour depth for monopiles. By introducing an effective diameter, such methods could also be applied to predicting scour depth for pile groups. Yet, there are still diff...
