A review of the existing research on the interaction between a pipeline and an erodible bed
exposed to waves and/or currents is presented. The review covers three topics: scour …

A fully-coupled hydrodynamic/morphodynamic numerical model is presented and utilized for
the simulation of wave-induced scour and backfilling processes beneath submarine …

This paper presents a comprehensive review of studies of local scour below subsea
pipelines. The review covers a variety of topics including onset of scour, scour depth, scour …

In this study, local scour around two identical pipelines in a tandem arrangement are
investigated numerically. The two-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) …

Submarine pipeline is a type of important infrastructure in petroleum industry, used for
transporting crude oil or natural gas. Understanding of the dynamics characteristics under …

It is widely known that submarine pipelines constructed in high seismic intensity zones are
vulnerable due to soil liquefaction under the attack of seismic waves. It is meaningful for …

Local scour around subsea pipeline has become an important problem in the marine
environment. In this research study, the scour around a pipeline sleeper system in steady …

The process of scour around submarine pipelines laid on mobile beds is complicated due to
physical processes arising from the triple interaction of waves/currents, beds and pipelines …

We here study the scouring processes that evolve around a submarine pipeline placed on a
weakly cohesive seabed. We first analyze some laboratory tests carried out by Vijaya Kumar …

Pipelines are the key structures to carry fluids such as oil, petroleum, gas and water; any
inadequate design induces bottom stability problems causing unintended consequences. In …
