摘要
The total uplift forces of waves acting on horizontal plates are theimportant basis for the design of maritime hollow-trussed structures. In this paper, an experimentalstudy on the total uplift forces of waves on horizontal plates was conducted by a series of modeltests. The results show that the maximum total uplift forces do not necessarily occur with themaximum impact pressure intensity synchronously. On the basis of the test results, formationmechanism of the total uplift forces of waves as well as its influencing factors were analyzed indetail, and an equation for calculation of the maximum total uplift forces of waves on plates wasput forward. Lots of test data shows the present equation is in good agreement with the testresults.
