Numerical Analysis of Dynamic Interaction Between Non-Linear Waves and Permeable Toe Over Sand Seabed in Front of a Seawall

چکیده

A combined BEM-FEM model has been developed to simulate the dynamic interaction between non-linear waves and an impermeable seawall with a submerged rubble toe over a sand seabed. A poro-elastic finite element model has been developed and used under the surface pressure computed by the BEM-FEM model. Modified Navier-Stokes equations are used to solve the flow inside the porous media and Biot's equations for the solid particles' displacement. The wave deformation and its induced pore-water flow are studied for different hydraulic properties and sizes of the toe. The effects of the seabed shear modulus and thickness on the solid particle displacement, pore-water pressure and dynamic stresses are investigated.

Steel Catenary Riser-Seabed Interaction Due to Caspian Sea Environmental Conditions

This paper investigates the integrated riser/vessel system which is subjected to random waves. Riser pipelines are the main components of the oil and gas offshore platforms. Whereas Iran country has been located on the fringes of Caspian Sea deep water, therefore study and research in this area is increasingly essential. The fluctuation of floating production causes the severe response and grea...

Effect of Riser-Seabed Interaction on the Dynamic Behavior of Risers

In recent years, the production of oil and gas has been developed in deep water depths which exceed 500m. Deep water developments are being followed strongly in different parts of the world (Caspian Sea, Gulf of Mexico, etc.). The movement of floater causes severe stress at the touchdown point (TDP) in steel catenary risers (SCR). The main objective of this study was to simulate the exact behav...

Effect of Pile Scouring on the Structural Behavior of a Fixed Jacket Platform with Consideration of Non-linear Pile Seabed Interaction

In offshore structures, most of failures are caused by the lack of sufficient piles strength. Scour phenomena affects the load transition and the pile strength. The necessity of the consideration of scouring phenomena amplifies when the scour depth becomes remarkable, which can endanger the jacket stability. In this paper, a new method is used to consider the pile scouring using nonlinear pusho...

MHD boundary layer heat and mass transfer of a chemically reacting Casson fluid over a permeable stretching surface with non-uniform heat source/‎sink

The heat and mass transfer analysis for MHD Casson fluid boundary layer flow over a permeable stretching sheet through a porous medium is carried out. The effect of non-uniform heat generation/absorption and chemical reaction are considered in heat and mass transport equations correspondingly. The heat transfer analysis has been carried out for two different heating processes namely; the prescr...
