Floating and Submerged Structures

The module addresses the design, monitoring and assessment of floating and (semi)-submerged civil engineering solutions for infrastructural and urban development applications, for instance floating bridges and moored tunnels, including control, installation, maintenance and economics. This implies that the structure should be understood as a system as a whole and the varying environmental interactions aerodynamic, hydrodynamic and soil be considered in conjunction.

The content of the module contributes to the MUDE and Ethics learning lines.
