Jørgen Fredsøe
Jørgen Fredsøe (1947) is a Danish hydraulic engineer who is recognized for his contributions within bed form dynamics in rivers and the marine environment and coastal morphology including bars and beach undulations. Together with professor B. Mutlu Sumer he initiated the research on scour (erosion) in the seabed around coastal structures (such as offshore windturbines) applying detailed hydrodynamic interpretations. He was born in Randers, Denmark.

Academic life
[edit]Fredsøe has a M.Sc. in 1971 and a Ph.D. in Civil Engineering in 1974, Technical University of Denmark. In 1984 he got the Dr. Tech. title with the Thesis: Sediment Transport in Currents and Waves (see e.g.[1]), also at the Technical University of Denmark. He joined the faculty in Civil Engineering from 1974, and became a full professor in 1985. In 1979 he was visiting researcher at Iowa Institute of Hydraulic Research, University of Iowa, USA.
