Abstract

This paper studies the effect of wave loads on the submerged piles. The submerged piles are used widely in harbors, and offshore structures.The bottom part of the pile is buried in soil under the mud line while the upper part (free height of the pile above the mud line) is subjected to waves. The internal forces induced in the pile depend on many factors such as, pile diameter, soil type, water depth, wave period and height. A numerical model for a submerged pile was developed using a commercial Finite Element program to study the internal forces induced on submerged piles which subjected to wave action. The factors affecting the internal forces induced in the pile, due to the wave load, were studied. In the present research, range of different values for each factor was taken into consideration to establish the effect of each factor on the internal forces induced in the pile. The results were summarized in curves to highlight the effect of each factor.
