Incipient Fluidization of Fine Sands in Deep Seabed
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The pore pressure increase in a deep sandy seabed due to the discharges from a buried source pipe was studied analytically. Darcy's law was assumed. The injection flow from the discharge ports of the source pipe was simulated ...
Discussion of “<i>Wave‐Induced Effective Stress in Seabed and Its Momentary Liquefaction</i>” by Tetsuo Sakai, Katsuya Hatanaka, and Hajime Mase (March/April 1992, Vol. 118, No. 2)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Wind Mixing in Temperature Simulations for Lakes and Reservoirs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A one-dimensional mathematical formulation for simulating the wind mixing of the surface layers in reservoirs and lakes is developed. Emphasis is placed on the estimation of the net available wind-supplied energy for mixing ...
Marine Tailings Disposal Simulation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The disposal of mine tailings in deep water body requires comprehensive assessment of the potential environmental impacts, and estimates of the effective storage capacity of the bottom bathymetry for accommodating the ...
Analytical Study on Drift of Small Floating Objects under Regular Waves
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An improved analytical derivation was present on the drift motion of small rigid floating objects of arbitrary shapes under regular surface waves. The approach follows the slope-sliding model but with two new developments: ...
Dynamics of Particle Clouds in Ambient Currents with Application to Open-Water Sediment Disposal
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Flow visualization experiments were performed in a glass-walled recirculating flume to observe the fate of sediments released instantaneously in a current. For releases at the surface, criteria were developed to characterize ...
Wave‐Induced Breakout of Half‐Buried Marine Pipes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An experimental study is conducted in order to identify the major physical processes leading to the breakout of half‐buried submarine pipelines from the seafloor under ocean‐wave action. Both the hydrodynamic loading on ...
