This study focuses on the practical application of submerged floating tunnels (SFTs), emphasizing the need to effectively resist environmental loads while maintaining serviceability and safety. A comprehensive analysis involving various boundary conditions was conducted to understand the behavior of SFTs. The structural responses of SFTs were analyzed through hydrodynamics-based numerical methods, specifically using ABAQUS-AQUA. The study investigated the dynamic motions and moment distributions under different mooring types and boundary conditions. It was found that double-inclined mooring (Type3) displayed the most stable displacement and the least moment in the free condition, providing valuable insights for the fundamental design of SFTs.

摘要

This study focuses on the practical application of submerged floating tunnels (SFTs), emphasizing the need to effectively resist environmental loads while maintaining serviceability and safety. A comprehensive analysis involving various boundary conditions was conducted to understand the behavior of SFTs. The structural responses of SFTs were analyzed through hydrodynamics-based numerical methods, specifically using ABAQUS-AQUA. The study investigated the dynamic motions and moment distributions under different mooring types and boundary conditions. It was found that double-inclined mooring (Type3) displayed the most stable displacement and the least moment in the free condition, providing valuable insights for the fundamental design of SFTs.
