Abstract Submerged floating tunnel (SFTs) are typically subjected to complex external environmental and internal loads
such as wave currents and traffic load. In this study, this problem is investigated through a finite element method
able to account for fluid-structure interaction. The obtained results show that increasing the number of vehicles
per unit length enhances the transverse vibrational displacements of the SFT cross sections. Under ultimate traffic
load condition, one-way and two-way syntropic distributions can promote the dynamic responses of SFTs
whereas two-way reverse distributions have the opposite effect. More >
