Wave forces on cylindrical piles and pile groups : a critical review

This thesis is a critical review of methods of predicting wave forces on vertical piles or groups of piles. It assigns different force prediction theories to different situations or flow regimes and analyses their advantages and disadvantages. The thesis is split into two sections: Section I reviewing the force prediction methods for single piles, and Section II for groups of piles.
