DESCRIPTION:
Prasanta K Sahoo said Hydrodynamics around Cylindrical Structures. A must have book for all engineers dealing with hydrodynamics of offshore structures. Also for all academics teaching or planning to teach some chapters from this book.Sometimes the book may be difficult to follow without solved problems and hence teaching to undergraduates may be a challenge. I am also wondering if someone could permit me to write a few worked examples for this book.
The development in the forces is related to the various flow patterns and is discussed in detail. Special attention is paid to circular cylinder. Regular as well as irregular waves are considered, and special cases like wall proximities (pipelines) are also investigated.. This book discusses the subject of wave/current flow around a cylinder, the forces induced on the cylinder by the flow, and the vibration pattern of slender structures in a marine environment.The primary aim of the book is to describe the flow pattern and the resulting load which develops when waves or current meet a cylinder
B Mutlu Sumer is Professor at the Technical University of Denmark, MEK, Coastal, Maritime and Structural Engineering Section (formerly ISVA, Institute of Hydrodynamics and Water Resources). His main fields of research are river and coastal sediment transport, and flow around marine structures (including scour). He graduated with MSc
The treatment of the subjects is up-to-date, particularly chapters on numerical simulation and vibrations -- Professor J W Kamphuis, Coastal Engineering
