Contents Overview -- Basic seabed mechanisms -- Soil response in marine sediments under combined loading of waves and currents -- Integrated model for wave-seabed interactions around caisson-type break-waters -- Mechanics of wave-seabed-pipeline interactions -- Wave-seabed interaction around breakwater heads -- Seabed instability around offshore wind turbine foundations -- Physical modeling: one-dimensional compressive tests
Summary "Opening with recent advances in both the theoretical and physical models for wave-seabed-structure interactions, this book provides an updated look at the mathematics behind the interactions between sea, soil and man-made structures. The main models are broken down to key equations, and their strengths and challenges are discussed. These models are then placed in context with industry-relevant examples, in both two and three dimensions. From seabed instability around offshore wind turbines, to soil conditions in response to the laying of submarine pipelines, this book takes a comprehensive look at a variety of wave-seabed-structure interactions. With important implications for the future of offshore infrastructure, this is an ideal resource for industry workers, undergraduate students, and researchers"-- Provided by publisher
