EXPERIMENTS OF HYDRODYNAMICS AND STABILITY OF IMMERSED TUBE TUNNEL ON TRANSPORTATION AND IMMERSING

摘要

Effects of environment conditions, such as cur- rent, wave etc., are more important for immersed tube tun- nel's transportation and immersing. The hydrodynamics and stability of immersed tube tunnel during its towing and immer- sing are intersted for department of design and construction. A serial model tests are made in towing tank and water chan- Nel for Nanjing immersed tube tunnel, and the first immersed Tunnel has been designed in Yangtzi River in China.
