Numerical Simulations of High Strength Steel Lipped-Channel Columns (No. R843)
Published 2004An experimental research project was conducted to evaluate the compression stability of high strength steel sections. Three buckling modes ‘Local, Euler and Distortional buckling’ and the interaction between them were ...Open AccessReport, Research -
A New Approximation for Pore Pressure Accumulation in Marine Sediment Due to Water Waves (No. R868)
Published 2006The residual mechanism of wave-induced pore water pressure accumulation in marine sediments is re-examined. Analytical approximation is derived using a linear relation fore pore pressure generation in cyclic lading, and ...Open AccessReport, Research -
Neural Network assessment for scour depth around bridge piers (No. R855)
Published 2005The mechanism of flow around a pier structure is so complicated that, it is difficult to establish a general empirical model to provide accurate estimation for scour. Interestingly, each of the proposed empirical formula ...Open AccessReport, Research -
A New Design Method for Wave-Induced Pipeline Stability on a Sandy Seabed (No. R860)
Published 2005The existing DnV Recommended Practice (RP E305) for pipeline on-bottom stability is mainly based on the Pipe-Soil Interaction Model proposed by Wagner et al. (1987) and the Wake Model by Lambrakos et al. (1987) to calculate ...Open AccessReport, Research -
Bifurcation of Locally Buckled Point Symmetric Columns-Experimental investigations (No. R867)
Published 2006The bifurcation equations for locally buckled point symmetric sections are derived in a companion report [1]. In the present report, two series of experiments are reported, one on narrow flange Z-sections and one on wide ...Open AccessReport, Research
