Grant Activity:
Improving the security of anchoring systems under extreme cyclones
Purpose:
This project aims to investigate the behaviour of anchoring systems under cyclonic loading and to innovate anchor designs to improve their security during extreme cyclones. Anchoring systems are increasingly playing the vital role of securing floating structures to extract ocean energies, but the current empirical knowledge and design method hinder confidence in engineering application. This project expects to advance the fundamental scientific understanding of the geotechnical mechanism of anchors under cyclonic loading using innovative experimental and advanced numerical modelling. Outcomes will include quality first-hand data contributing to the knowledge base, innovative anchor designs and new scientific based design guidelines.
