Mathematical Model of Wave Induced Pressures

by John P. Grubert, Univ of Nebraska-Lincoln, United States,



Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Soil Properties Evaluation from Centrifugal Models and Field Performance

Abstract:

A two-dimensional, implicit finite difference model was built to compute surface wave induced pressures under a gravity base foundation. The results showed considerable wave attenuation and phase shift below the raft and very high pressure gradients at the boundaries of the raft.
