Offshore Soil Mechanics





PREFACE

This book was written as class notes for the course on ”Offshore Soil Mechanics” of the Department of Civil Engineering of the Delft University

of Technology, as given until 2002.

In the latest version, which is published on the internet, the format of the pages has been changed to the landscape shape, some figures

have been improved by adding color, and multi-line formulas have been reduced to a single line, profiting from the wider page format. Also two

chapters (on consolidation and waves in piles) have been copied from the Soil Dynamics book. Some additional material may be included later.

For many problems elementary computer programs are given, in Turbo Pascal. These programs may be used, copied and distributed without

restriction. No responsibility for any loss or damage resulting from use of these programs is accepted, however. Some more advanced programs

can be downloaded from the author’s website ().

The notes have been prepared using the L T E X version (Lamport, 1986) of the program T A E X (Knuth, 1986).
