Abstract

The dynamic characteristics of large-scale tunnel element are very important for the process of immersion. In the paper, the motions and stress of the element under wave actions were studied. The linear wave diffraction theory and the three-dimensional source distribution method were applied to calculate the wave loads and motion responses of the tunnel element under different incident wave conditions. In the study, there have no cable on the element. On the basis of the above theories, the stress and the motions of the element were studied. The first order wave forces and the second order wave force were deduced, and the motions equation was made.
