Experimental study on characteristics of submerged floating tunnels under regular waves
Abstract
Submerged Floating Tunnels (abbr.SFT) have been expected as one of the most prospective construction technology for crossing of straits. In Japan, the Society of Submerged Floating Tunnel Technology Research in Hokkaido, which was established in 1990, has started investigation on the development of SFT in Funka Bay. This paper is a part of the studies carried out at Hokkaido, and deals with fundamental hydrodynamic response of SFT obtained by model experiments under regular waves.
