The dynamic interaction between pipeline vibration and local scour is investigated numerically. The sediment scour model is adopted to calculate the local scour below pipeline. The general moving objects (GMO) model fully coupled with the fluids is established to simulate the pipeline vibration. The present results are consistent with the previous experimental results and show good agreement. The scour depth and scour hole scale are closely related to the amplitude of pipeline vibration. The effects of initial gap-to-diameter ratio, reduced velocity, and pipeline diameter on the local scour and pipeline vibration are investigated.
