Wave forces on submarine pipelines : a review

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

In Part I theoretical aspects of hydrodynamic forces on immersed solids are considered. Part II contains a chronological review of research projects, laboratory as well as ocean experiments, which have been carried out since 1950. In Part III the recommended procedures, which emerge from Part. II, are applied to calculate wave forces acting on the proposed Green Point outfall sewer which is to serve the central city area of Cape Town. The results are discussed and compared. Part IV outlines the conclusions of this study and offers recommendations for future research in this field.
