Abstract:This paper deals with the floating resistance of super large caisson by numerical simulation, and the influence of air resistance on the caisson, which is often ignored by previous researchers, is considered. The floating caisson of Taizhou Highway Bridge's middle tower pier is investigated, and the software package FLUENT is used to simulate the floating process of largescale rounded rectangular steel caisson. This simulation adopts the volume of fluid (VOF) model with water-air two-phase flow, which can take… Show more
