A numerical simulation on seepage-induced collapse of caisson breakwater using a stabilized ISPH method
The clarification on the collapse mechanism of a caisson breakwater has been an urgent task in order to reduce damages caused by next millennium tsunamis. In this study, piping destruction of a mound induced by seepage flow is taken into consideration solely. A stabilized ISPH method proposed by Asai (2012) is adopted with some modification associated with the extended Darcy law (Akbari 2013, 2...
متن کاملEvaluation of Vibration Characteristics of Caisson-Type Breakwater Using Impact Vibration Tests and Validation of Numerical Analysis Model
In this study, ambient and forced vibration tests are proposed to evaluate dynamic characteristics of a caisson-type breakwater including natural frequencies and modal damping ratios, and the feasibility of numerical analysis model with fluid-structure-soil interaction effects, which plays an important role to evaluate structural performance and safety, is investigated by comparing the numerica...
متن کاملNumerical Study on Tsunami Hazard Mitigation Using a Submerged Breakwater
Most coastal structures have been built in surf zones to protect coastal areas. In general, the transformation of waves in the surf zone is quite complicated and numerous hazards to coastal communities may be associated with such phenomena. Therefore, the behavior of waves in the surf zone should be carefully analyzed and predicted. Furthermore, an accurate analysis of deformed waves around coa...
متن کاملThe Expected Sliding Distance Model of Meandering Damage for Caisson Breakwater
In the past decades, many references have studied the mechanics of meandering damage for breakwater. However, up to the present time, no model has been proposed to compute the consequence of this kind of damage quantitatively. So, this paper tries to solve this problem by combining the expected sliding distance technique and the diffraction model. 1 Preface The meandering damage of breakwater i...
متن کاملArtificial Intelligence and Rubble-Mound Breakwater Stability
Breakwaters are coastal structures constructed to shelter a harbour basin from waves. There are two main types: rubble-mound breakwaters, consisting of various layers of stones or concrete pieces of different sizes (weights), making up a porous mound; and vertical breakwaters, impermeable and monolythic, habitually composed of concrete caissons. This article deals with rubble-mound breakwaters....
