“…Qu et al (2020) numerically investigated the effects of floating breakwater on the cnoidal wave induced wave loads on the low-lying bridge deck using REEF3D. Zhao et al (2020a) developed a numerical tank for generating tsunami-like waves recorded in the Iwate station during 2011 Japan tsunami and studied the wave impact on coastal bridges by using the Immersed Boundary method (IBM). Xu et al (2020) presented a methodology for sequentially updating surrogate models with augmented data in order to substantially enhance the design of experiments in the bridge deck-wave interaction under solitary wave actions.…”

“…Thus, it is essential to study the countermeasure to protect the coastal bridge decks. As shown in Table 4, the strategies for protecting the bridge deck including the studies of air vents in the bridge deck (e.g., Bozorgnia et al 2010;Azadbakht 2013;Hayatdavoodi et al 2014;Xu et al 2016;Xiao and Guo 2018;Zhao et al 2020aZhao et al , 2020b, the height of shear keys (e.g., Chen et al 2016), the connection between the superstructures and substructures (e.g., Xu and Cai 2015;Balomenos and Padgett 2018;Cai et al 2018;Yuan et al 2018), the offshore submerged breakwater (e.g., Wei and Dalrymple 2016), the offshore floating breakwater (e.g., Qu et al 2020a) and so on. Figure 8 gives a design of air vent distributed on the slab and the corresponding airflow field induced by the incident wave.…”

“…When the incident wave directly hits the elevated bridge deck, wave breaking occurs, resulting in wave overtopping above the deck surface and air bubbles forming in the water. The conventional potential flow method faces a difficult challenge in accurately predicting the highly nonlinear wave-deck interaction, and such cases are best studied by the use of the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solvers regardless of the submerged or elevated condition of the bridge deck (e.g., Huang and Xiao 2009;Bozorgnia et al 2010;Xiao et al 2010;Jin and Meng 2011;Bricker et al 2012;Bozorgnia and Lee 2012;Yim and Azadbakht 2013;Azadbakht 2013;Azadbakht and Yim 2014;Hayatdavoodi et al 2014;Xu and Cai 2014;Ataei and Padgett 2014;Seiffert et al 2015;Xu and Cai 2015;Xu and Cai 2015;Chen et al 2016;Xu et al 2018a;Xu et al 2018b;Xiao and Guo 2018;Huang, Yang, et al, 2019;Istrati and Buckle 2019;Qu et al 2019;Moideen et al 2019;Montoya et al 2019;Greco et al 2020;Hu et al 2020;Qu et al 2020a;Qu et al 2020b;Xiang et al 2020;Yang et al 2020;Zhao et al 2020aZhao et al , 2020bZhu and Dong 2020).…”

Massive coastal bridges were damaged in Hurricanes Ivan (2004) and Katrina (2005), and considerable efforts have been devoted to the studies of wave forces acting on bridge decks since then. When the hurricane and tsunamis approach the coastal zones, the mean water level is elevated, making it possible for the incident wave to hit the bridge deck directly. The study of wave force acting on the bridge deck is essential for the investigation of bridge failure mechanism, and a literature review of wave forces with experimental and numerical methods after Hurricanes Ivan and Katrina is presented in this paper. Though the experiments and numerical models can not fully simulate the wave-deck interaction as in realistic conditions, remarkable progress has been achieved, and some significant findings help the researchers to further understand the failure mechanism of the bridge deck. Emphasis is given to the studies that have significantly improved our understanding of the topic. Challenges associated with the existing studies and suggestions for future studies are presented for a deeper understanding of the failure mechanism of the bridge deck, and more countermeasures are expected to protect the bridge deck under extreme wave forces.

The Tianjin port plays a relevant role in driving both ship navigation and the weather and climate of the area. To better understand the underlying peculiarities of this area, several in-service coastal ocean system and facilities have been constructed, at present, the whole coastal ocean systems at Tianjin port have been improved, however, they cannot meet the safety requirements of traffic management and navigational safety. Marine buoys have the unreplaceable advantages of long-term, real-time, reliable capabilities and trivial environmental restrictions to monitor the marine dynamics. Here an innovative multifunctional buoy prototype is proposed to continuously measure meteorological and oceanographic parameters at a high spatial and temporal resolution, which can ensure navigation safety at Tianjin Port. Solar panels and battery module are personalized to ensure electric supply to the buoy system. An independent ARM (Advanced RISC Machine)-based module is affiliated to maintain the stability of the data acquisition and communication module. Buoy platform based on Beidou difference is proved to be an effective approach for the tide measurement. Additionally, a web-designed software for data acquisition is integrated for the visualization purpose. Finally, in-field recording test at Tianjin port will be performed to verify effectiveness of our system on monitoring environment dynamics. It turns out that our buoy prototype functions as a reliable and energy favorable electrical device and shed light on the development of effective measurement instruments working under unpredictable and harsh marine environment.
