  • Ocean wave-soil-caisson interaction

    Creator:
    Tsai, Yau-tang
    Abstract:
    Caissons on permeable seabeds have been designed and constructed for a variety of needs in coastal and offshore engineering. An evaluation of the adequacy of the foundation beneath the structure is required for an economic and safe design. To address this requirement, a two-dimensional analytical model of the foundation response...

  • Ocean wave interaction with a caisson on a rubble base

    Creator:
    Ward, Donald L. (Donald LeRoy), 1954-
    Abstract:
    Caissons are frequently used in the coastal environment for breakwaters, jetties, seawalls, and piers. Because a satisfactory analytical solution to a typical caisson installation has not been developed, design of a caisson-style structure typically is either based on physical model testing, which is expensive, or the structure is designed as...
