Book Dolos Design Procedure Based on Crescent City Prototype Data

Download or read book Dolos Design Procedure Based on Crescent City Prototype Data written by Jeffrey A. Melby and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This design procedure includes statistical methods for determining a design stress in a dolos armor layer. The methods characterize the structural response as a single parameter: the maximum principal tensile stress in each dolos. Using this approach, the dolos shape can be optimized for structural integrity and hydrodynamic stability, and the design can be verified in the physical model. Also, the structural response to the most significant loading mechanisms can be computed separately and the individual statistical distributions combined to yield a design stress distribution. The design stress is computed using this design stress distribution and then compared to a fatigue-reduced strength. The iterative optimizing design process can be accomplished using a user-friendly PC-based computer program. It is shown that unreinforced normal-strength dolosse above 20 tons are often underdesigned with respect to strength and can tolerate only slight movement and the associated impacts. It is also shown that increasing the dolos waist ratio can add significantly to the unit's strength, while sacrificing little hydrodynamic stability, and that large dolosse over 30 tons require some strengthening scheme ...

Book Coastal Structures and Breakwaters

Download or read book Coastal Structures and Breakwaters written by and published by Thomas Telford. This book was released on 1992 with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents authoritative research on new experience in the field of coastal structures and breakwaters, particularly that which has led to advances in design procedures. It brings together the experience of an international authorship to cover the design and construction of coastal structures, particularly recent developments, the magnitude and effects of longer-term environmental changes, and the assessment of these structures and their relative safety.

Book Physical Models and Laboratory Techniques in Coastal Engineering

Download or read book Physical Models and Laboratory Techniques in Coastal Engineering written by Steven A. Hughes and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1993 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Laboratory physical models are a valuable tool for coastal engineers. Physical models help us to understand the complex hydrodynamic processes occurring in the nearshore zone and they provide reliable and economic engineering design solutions.This book is about the art and science of physical modeling as applied in coastal engineering. The aim of the book is to consolidate and synthesize into a single text much of the knowledge about physical modeling that has been developed worldwide.This book was written to serve as a graduate-level text for a course in physical modeling or as a reference text for engineers and researchers engaged in physical modeling and laboratory experimentation. The first three chapters serve as an introduction to similitude and physical models, covering topics such as advantages and disadvantages of physical models, systems of units, dimensional analysis, types of similitude and various hydraulic similitude criteria applicable to coastal engineering models.Practical application of similitude principles to coastal engineering studies is covered in Chapter 4 (Hydrodynamic Models), Chapter 5 (Coastal Structure Models) and Chapter 6 (Sediment Transport Models). These chapters develop the appropriate similitude criteria, discuss inherent laboratory and scale effects and overview the technical literature pertaining to these types of models. The final two chapters focus on the related subjects of laboratory wave generation (Chapter 7) and measurement and analysis techniques (Chapter 8).

Book Proceedings  Measurement and Analysis of Structural Response in Concrete Armor Units

Download or read book Proceedings Measurement and Analysis of Structural Response in Concrete Armor Units written by and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "This proceedings is the record of a workshop hosted by the Coastal Engineering Research Center. The objective of the workshop was to review the current state of knowledge of the structural strength of breakwater concrete armor units and to discuss past and proposed measurements of the structural forcing and response. The invited participants represented a purposeful mix of coastal engineers, structural engineers, concrete specialists, and laboratory and field experimenters. Both researchers and engineers involved in the design and construction of rubble-mound breakwaters participated."
