Marine biofouling is a major concern in the operational performance of submerged floating
tunnels (SFTs). The objective of this research is to investigate the effects of marine fouling …

This paper presents a data assimilation method based on the POD-DeepONet structure to
fuse two types of fidelity data from vortex-induced vibration (VIV) problems. The data is …

In this paper, a rigorous examination of the immersed boundary method (IBM) and some of
its offshore implications are presented. Marine risers with helical strakes and marine-fouled …

Coastal biogenic structures, formed by ecosystem engineering species, often feature rough
surfaces characterized by intricate topographies and highly three-dimensional reliefs. Their …

This study is intended to elucidate the mechanisms underlying fluid–structure interactions
(FSIs) for a pontoon submerged floating tunnel (PSFT). To this end, a shear stress transport …

Submerged floating tunnels are considered an economical alternative to those conventional
bridges in crossing deep and long-span water bodies. The development of accurate …

Submerged floating tunnel (SFT) is a new smart transportation infrastructure and a very
promising technical solution for waterway crossings, specially for long, large and deep water …

The shape of the tube in submerged floating tunnels (SFTs) plays a critical role in
determining their performance and safety in marine environments. In this study, a gradient …

The modelling of complex free surface flows is challenging due to the mobility and
deformability of the interface and air entrainment characteristics, which are highly affected by …

The submerged floating tunnel is a marine transportation infrastructure that links two
shorelines. The tunnel tube body's buoyancy exceeds gravity, with anchoring ensuring …
