During his tenure at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), he coordinated many research programmes: SCARCOST (Scour Around Coastal Structures) (1997-2000) and LIMAS (Liquefaction Around Marine Structures) (2001-2004), two European research programmes financed by the European Community under MAST III and FP5 programmes, respectively. He also coordinated EPCOAST (Exploitation and Protection of Coastal Zones), a frame research program financed by Danish Technical Research Council (2005-2008); and Seabed Wind Farm Interaction, another frame research program financed by Danish Council for Strategic Research (DSF)/Energy and Environment (2008-2012). Professor Sumer, at DTU, developed courses such as Turbulence Theory, Marine Structures 1 (forces on and vibrations of marine structures such as marine pipelines), Marine Structures 2 (scour around marine structures, and wave-induced liquefaction of marine soils and its impact on marine structures).He is the author of four books the details of which are given above in Professor Sumer’s short biography.Other pertinent information is also given in the above short biography.
