... ABSTRACT A numerical tool has been developed to predict the impulsive hydrodynamic uplift loads produced by cnoidal waves impacting coastal structures. A nonlinear cnoidal II wave theory is adopted. The finite-element method is used to solve the Laplace equation and the Height-Flux Method (HFM...

... and cyclic uplift loads, and (c) sinking under self weight. The merits and demerits of six types of systems are considered, namely, piles with template, gravity anchors, gravity anchors with piles, gravity anchors with skirt walls, superpile anchors, and gravity anchors with skirt walls having a sealed top...
