The instability of a partially embedded pipeline under ocean currents involves complex fluid?pipe?soil interactions, which may induce two typical instability modes; i.e., the lateral instability of the pipe and the tunnel erosion of the underlying soil. ...

This article derives the time scale of pipeline scour caused by 2D (long-crested) and 3D (short-crested) nonlinear irregular waves and current for wave-dominant flow. The motivation is to provide a simple engineering tool suitable to use when assessing t...
