Abstract:A Ab bs st tr ra ac ct t An important unknown while burying a submarine pipeline is "What is it's minimum safe burial depth?". It is a function of wave climate, water depth, engineering and hydraulic properties of the seabed soil, etc. To solve this problem, physical model investigations were carried out in a wave flume to assess the change in the horizontal and vertical hydrodynamic forces on a submarine pipeline for different depth of burial. The marine sand is well graded and has hydraulic conductivity of 1… Show more
