The extreme sea conditions caused by typhoons pose a threat to the design safety of marine and coastal engineering structures. In the past, design wave height calculation models that only considered the frequency of typhoons ignored the influence of other hazard factors of typhoons, resulting in lower design standards. In this paper, typhoon frequency, intensity, and distance are selected, and dimensional influences of different factors are eliminated through standardization processing. Based on the correlation between different hazard factors, we have obtained a multi-dimensional discrete joint probability distribution of typhoon hazard factors and constructed a new design wave height that considers the comprehensive effects of typhoon frequency, intensity, and distance. Our results show that the design wave height values of the 50-year, 100-year, and 200-year events are 12.59%, 8.10%, and 3.14% higher than the Gumbel distribution, which is more in line with the distribution of the wave height of waves under severe typhoon conditions. The new model can fully reflect the impact of typhoons on wave height, which can provide a reference for the design safety of marine engineering in the South China Sea. Full article

Although twin pipelines in series have been used to transport hydrocarbons in engineering practice, most previous studies focused on the dynamic response of the seabed around a single pipeline. A two-way coupling model of fluid–structure–seabed interaction (FSSI) is proposed for the study of the soil response and liquefaction caused by waves and currents around twin pipelines. The present model integrates the flow model and the seabed model by introducing a boundary condition of velocity continuity in addition to the continuity of pressures at the seabed surface. Then, the inconsistency between the physical process and numerical simulation can be overcome in the one-way coupling model. Through a series of numerical simulations, the influence of different flow characteristics, soil properties, and pipeline configurations on the seabed response under the two-way coupling process were explored, and compared with the results of the single pipeline. The numerical results indicate that the twin pipeline configuration significantly alters the relevant responses compared to the single pipeline configuration, including the after-consolidation state, amplitude of velocity at the seabed surface, and distribution of pore pressure in the seabed. The parametric studies show that the amplitudes of the wave and current have significant impacts on the distribution of pore pressure in the seabed. The pore pressure in the seabed increases with the increase of forward wave current, while the results of reverse wave current are the opposite. In addition, the liquefaction range around the pipeline increases with the increase of Hw and Tw, and increases with the decrease of Sr and ks. At the same time, the gaps (G) and the ratio of pipe radius (R1/R2) between the twin pipelines also significantly affect the seabed response and liquefaction distribution around the pipeline.

A three-dimensional dam-break flow interacting with a vertical circular and square cylinder is studied in this paper using computational fluid dynamics simulations based on OpenFOAM. This resembles closely a tsunami wave and greenwater flow acting on coastal or on-deck structures, which are of relevance and importance to coastal protections and offshore operations, respectively. The numerical model is verified by comparing with published experimental measurements and is extended to investigate the effects of the structural geometry and the impacting angle β (i.e., the angle between the water front and cylinders) on the total impact load and the surrounding flow field. It is found that the impact event experiences two distinct stages characterized by a constant flow velocity and a negative flow acceleration, respectively. In addition, the total force on a square cylinder is nearly twice that of a circular cylinder although the impacting area is the same. The longitudinal and transverse forces are found to decrease and increase with the impacting angle, respectively. A close interrogation of the surrounding flow field via flow visualization suggests that the way the flow deflected from the cylinder surfaces plays an important role in determining the pressure field and thus the total force behaviors.

Monopiles are commonly utilized in offshore wind farms but are prone to non-linear wave loads and run-ups, significantly affecting their engineering design. Therefore, it is crucial to pursue a complete understanding of the non-linear wave action on monopile foundations. Both numerical and experimental investigations on the non-linear wave loads and run-ups on an offshore wind turbine monopile foundation are performed in this paper. The experiment is carried out at a scale of 1/30 in a wave flume at the State Key Laboratory of Coastal and Offshore Engineering, Dalian University of Technology, in which the wave loads and run-ups along the monopile are measured. Based on the second-order potential flow model and time-domain higher-order boundary element method (HOBEM), the related numerical tests are conducted to study the non-linear effects further. It is found that the present non-linear potential theory is sufficient for the simulation of wave force and run-ups on the monopile in the range of wave slope kA < 0.15 before wave breaking. “W” type distribution of wave run-up along the monopile is found, in which the peak value occurs at the frontward side (i.e., θ =180°) and is the maximum due to full reflection; the two symmetrical minimum amplitudes lie in the zones of (45° ≤ θ ≤ 90°) and (270° ≤ θ ≤ 315°), whose positions shift downward with the increase of wave non-linearity. Energy transfer among the fundamental wave component and higher-order components is also found, which is most apparent on the backward side. Besides, the transverse resonance occurs in the wave flume due to the wavelength being near the flume width, which induces the wave run-up at the backward position larger than that at the frontward position.

The evaluation of wave-induced residual pore pressure in a porous seabed and associated seabed liquefaction is essential for designing marine infrastructure foundations. The strength and stiffness of the seabed could be weakened due to the build-up of pore pressures under cyclic wave action, further leading to residual liquefaction. Existing models for residual liquefaction are limited to the quasi-static uncoupled approaches, which do not account for the effect of oscillatory pore pressure on the accumulative pore pressure acceleration of solid particles, despite the mutual influence of these two mechanisms. To overcome these limitations, this paper proposes a new model for residual soil response with u−p approximation (partial dynamic model) that couples oscillatory and residual mechanisms. The proposed model is validated through wave flume tests and centrifuge tests. Based on the coupling model, a new criterion of liquefaction integrating both oscillatory and residual mechanisms is also proposed. Numerical examples demonstrate that the coupling effect significantly affects the wave-induced seabed liquefaction potential. Furthermore, a new parameter (Ω) representing the ratio of oscillatory and residual pore pressure is introduced to clarify which mechanism dominates the pore pressure development. Full article
