• Effect of modelling inhomogeneous wave conditions on structural responses of a very long floating bridge 

      Dai, Jian; Stefanakos, Christos; Leira, Bernt Johan; Alsos, Hagbart Skage (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering;volume 9, issue 5, Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-05-19)
      Floating bridges are suitable for connecting land parcels separated by wide and deep waterbodies. However, when the span of the crossing becomes very long, the water environment exhibits inhomogeneities which introduce ...
    • Effect of wave-current interaction on a long fjord-crossing floating pontoon bridge 

      Dai, Jian; Abrahamsen, Bjørn Christian; Hansen Viuff, Thomas; Leira, Bernt Johan (Engineering structures;Volume 266, 1 September 2022, 114549, Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-06-20)
      Fjord-crossing floating bridges are sophisticated structures subjected to complex environmental loadings including combined action of wave and current. However, the effect of wave-current action is often neglected in a ...
    • Investigation of inhomogeneous wave conditions in Sulafjorden 

      Stefanakos, Christos; Dai, Jian; Leira, Bernt Johan (Proceedings of Annual International Ocean (Offshore) and Polar Engineering Conference;The Proceedings of the 31st (2021) International Ocean and Polar Engineering Conference, Conference object, 2021)
      Complex fjord topography (bathymetry and coastline) may differentiate significantly wave conditions not only compared with the offshore ones but in the vicinity of few tens of meters. In the present work, possible ...
