Scour around a cylindrical monopile

Hi everyone,
I am modelling scour around a cylindrical monopile but I am unable to get the scouring at the upstream end of the monopile. I expect horseshoe vortices to form at the bottom of the monopile, transporting the sediment. Downstream I am getting roughly what I am expecting. I am not sure whether this is due to the meshing not fine enough to capture the scouring at the upstream end of the monopile or if there is something wrong with something within my input files. I have attached my control and ctrl files. Thanks! |
