Product Description:
Groundbreaking and comprising articles by expert contributors, this volume provides a comprehensive treatment of VLFSs and their relationship with the sea, marine habitats, the pollution of costal waters and tidal and natural current flow. It looks in-depth at: VLFS and the colonization of ocean space with their appearance in the waters off developed coastal cities wave properties, which is essential for estimating the loading on the VLFS as well as for modelling structure-fluid interactions hydroelastic and structural analysis of VLFS at an overall level and the cell level the analysis and design of breakwaters simulation models to understand the actual flow of water through the VLFS and to determine the drift forces for the mooring systems anti-corrosion and maintenance systems new research and developments, with emphasis on the Mega-Float, a 1 km long floating test runway. Well-illustrated with photographs, drawings, equations for mathematical modelling and analysis and extensively referenced, "Very Large Floating Structures" is ideal for professionals, academics and students of civil and structural engineering

Very Large Floating Structures

The ocean as a frontier for colonization has a longevity that stems from mankind’s long-standing attraction to the ocean. Covering 70% of the Earth, the ocean provides a means to alleviate demands on coastal land pressure; land scarcity; avail renewable energy sources and new materials; increase food production and even to store carbon dioxide in order to mitigate global warming.
As close to 50% of the industrialized world now lives within a kilometer of the coast, the demand on land resources and space is beginning to approach a critical stage as the population of the world continues to expand at an alarming rate. There is need for a sustainable and environmentally friendly development. Technological innovations that promote stewardship of the Earth’s resources, especially the ocean, are vital for mankind’s survival in the next millennium. One of these environmentally friendly innovations to arise in recent times is the concept of Very Large Floating Structures (VLFS) – a technology that allows the creation of artificial land fromthe sea without destroying marine habitats, polluting coastal waters, and altering tidal and natural current flow.
