| Description: | Technical Memorandum From the Preface: Although circular piling is a much used structural element in shore protection, harbor, and other maritime structures, it has only been in the last few years that significant advances have been made toward gaining a quantitative understanding of the forces developed by wave action against piling. Recent tests have advanced our knowledge of these forces considerably, but certain inconsistencies have, however, been observed in much of the early work. This paper presents an attempt to reconcile some of these inconsistencies by using a somewhat different method of analysis. |
