- Field Investigations of Hydrodynamic Analysis on Scour Around Scaled Piles in a Broken Wave Region
Ocean renewable energy is the focus for the future generations owing to exhaust of fossil fuels in the global scenario. Offshore wind farms are one of the most promising one in most of the coastline countries. There are several windfarms located in nearshore/beach regions (e.g.: Bangui Wind Farm, Philippines). Scour around the foundation of nearshore windfarm structure is one of the important technical aspects to be analyzed to a greater extent. The various aspects of hydrodynamic field measurements on scaled pile models, which serve as design parameters for designing the pile supported coastal structures including wind energy farms in nearshore regions have been analyzed and presented.
