Large-scale experimental study on scour around offshore wind monopiles under irregular waves

The Keulegan-Carpenter (KC) number is the main dimensionless parameter that affects the local scour of offshore wind power monopile foundations. This study conducted large-scale (1:13) physical model tests to study the local scour shape, equilibrium scour depth, and local scour volume of offshore wi...
