WORKING PLAN
Task 1 - Improvement of damage number analysis
Extend the damage number analysis to new testing conditions to improve the understanding of the damage number behaviour.
Task 2 - Evaluation of damage number in complex foundations
Provide a wide data-base of physical modelling results concerning the damage number analysis in complex foundations.
Task 3 - Numerical modelling of dynamic scour protections
Provide a wide data-base of numerical modelling results concerning the damage analysis in complex foundations.
Task 4 - Development of a design methodology for dynamic scour protections
Provide a design methodology for dynamic scour protections applicable to both monopiles and complex foundations, which is currently not available in technical literature for offshore engineering.
Task 5 - Economical viability and open access benchmark data set
Provide an open access benchmark data set that includes the information from previous tasks 1, 2, 3 and 4, and adds up the detailed reporting of an economical analysis of cost-benefits of dynamic scour protections for cases reported in scientific literature.
