Numerical models for the dynamic response of submerged floating tunnels under seismic loading.

The modeling of tethering elements of seabed anchored floating structures is addressed, with particular reference to the so-called Archimedes Bridge (submerged floating tunnel, SFT) solution for deep water crossing; attention is devoted to the design solution encompassing slender bars as anchor elem...
