摘要
The in-line and lift forces on bipiles in tandem array induced by both irregular waves and currents were investigated experimentally in this paper. The characteristics in both time and frequency domain of inline, lift and resultant forces as well were analyzed. The grouping effect coefficients of in-line and resultant forces on two piles related to KC number and relative spacing parameters are given. A comparison of the magnitude and direction of resultant forces on bipiles in tandem array with the corresponding values for single cylinder is also made.
