Exceedance probability for wave overtopping on a fixed deck

Detailed laboratory measurements were made of the instantaneous free surface elevation in front of a fixed deck and the instantaneous free surface elevation, velocity, and overtopping rate at the leading edge of the deck. The study showed that the exceedance probabilities for the normalized maximum instantaneous overtopping rate and the normalized overtopping volume were predicted by a simple exponential curve. The measured exceedance probability seaward of the deck compared well with the nonlinear theory of Kriebel and Dawson (Kriebel D.L., Dawson T.H., 1993. Nonlinearity in wave crest statistics. In: Proceedings Ocean Wave Measurement and Analysis. American Society of Civil Engineers, pp. 61–75). Conditional sampling of the crest heights seaward of the deck gave a normalized probability distribution similar to that of the maximum water level measured on the deck for each overtopping event. However, the values used to normalize each distribution were not the same.     

Wave reflection characteristics of plane, dentated and serrated seawalls

The hydrodynamic performance of vertical and sloped plane, dentated and serrated seawalls were investigated using physical model studies. Regular and random waves of wide range of heights and periods were used. Tests were carried out for different inclinations of the seawall (i.e. θ=30, 40, 50, 60 and 90°) and for a constant water depth of 0.7 m. The wave reflection was measured to assess the dissipation character of the seawalls. It was observed that the serrated seawall was superior to the plane and dentated seawall in reducing the wave reflection. Even for the vertical case, the coefficient of reflection due to regular waves for dentated seawall ranged from 0.6–0.99 and for the vertical serrated seawall it was 0.45–0.98, whereas for the vertical plane wall, it was almost 1.0. It was found that the characteristic dimension of the seawall (i.e. L/W) and the relative water depth (i.e. d/L) were better influencing parameters compared to the conventionally used surf similarity parameter ‘ξ’ (ξ=tan θ/(H_i/L)^0.5) in predicting the reflection from the dentated and serrated seawall, where L is the local wave length, W the width of the dent along the length of the seawall slope, d the water depth at the toe and H_i is the incident wave height. A similar trend was observed for the random waves too. The reduction in the wave reflection due to random waves for the dentated seawall as compared to the plane seawall was about 18% and for the serrated seawall, it was 20%. It was observed that the reflection due to random waves was lesser for all the three different walls than the regular waves, due to the mutual interaction of random waves. Multiple regression analysis on the measured data points was carried out and predictive equations for the reflection coefficient were obtained for both regular and random waves. This study will be useful in the design of energy dissipating type vertical quay walls in ports and harbours, sloped seawalls for shore protection from erosion and sloped caisson as breakwaters. Comparison of predictive formulae with the experimental results revealed that the prediction methods were good enough for practical purposes.

A Model for Loadout Analysis and Its Programming Implementation

- In this paper, the authors use the finite element method to conduct a special static analysis for the loadout procedure of offshore structures. By introducing a variable Xmove (the distance between the relative coordinate system fixed in the moving upper structure and the absolute coordinate system fixed on slideway), adopting substructure to treat the upper structure, and using the elastic foundation beam to model the slideway, the model for the analysis of the loadoul procedure is established. On the basis of this model, DASOS-J loadout program, a program system for the static analysis of loadout offshore structures, is also developed.

137Cs剖面的沉积信息提取——以香港贝澳湿地为例

通过建立模型,对采自香港大屿山岛贝澳湿地三个站位的沉积样品的137Cs实测剖面与模型计算剖面的比较分析,得出三个站位的沉积速率分别为0.24 cm/a、0.21 cm/a、0.34 cm/a,除P1站位外,P2、P3站位由于受到潮水的作用,表层沉积物受到侵蚀,侵蚀量分别为4.8 cm和7 cm。该结果与常用的时标方法所的结果进行了比较,P1站位由上述模型所得的结果与常用的时标方法所得的结果一致。可以看出,在稳定的沉积环境下,常用的确定时标的方法可以较准确地计算出沉积速率,而在堆积与侵蚀变化的沉积环境下,常用的确定时标的方法就存在一定的缺陷。该工作为137Cs剖面的沉积信息提取进行了有益的尝试。但上述模型中,由于采用日本东京地区的137Cs大气沉降通量记录替代香港地区的137Cs大气沉降通量记录,并没有考虑 137Cs的扩散效应,所以该模型还有待进一步的改进。
