This paper focuses on the hydrodynamic behavior of liquid pipelines in the presence of air valves. The aim of installing such valves on pipeline systems is twofold: on one hand, they release the accumulated air content and on the other hand, they allow t...

In the case of huge tsunamis, such as the 2004 Great Indian Ocean Tsunami and 2011 Great East Japan Tsunami, the damage caused by ground scour is serious. Therefore, it is important to improve prediction models for the topographical change of huge tsunam...

Floating caissons may oscillate primarily due to ocean waves during towing operations. Reducing the oscillation based on the extension part (footing) of the bottom slab of the caissons can efficiently increase the safety of towing maneuvers. However, the...
