WIND WAVE INDUCED IMPULSIVE PRESSURE LOAD ON REINFORCED CONCRETE DECK STRUCTURE

An analysis of the impulsive pressure load on the underside of the deck of a complex caisson structure caused by wind waves was conducted. The measurements obtained with the physical model are compared with the numerical FLOW-3D model simulation results and the maximum pressure values obtained by applying empirical expressions based on linear wave theory. FLOW-3D model results fit the measurements better where such an approach allows the analysis of pressure dynamics at any structure point. This opens the possibility of targeted modification of the design solutions at the early design stages.
