The techniques for measuring the trajectory and movement direction of drag anchors in soils, the techniques for measuring the moving embedment point and reverse eatenary shape of the embedded drag line, the penetration mechanism and kinematic behavior of drag anchors, the ultimate embedment depth of drag anchors, the movement direction of the anchor with an arbitrary fluke section, the reverse catenary properties of the embedded drag line, the interaetional properties between drag anchor and installation line, the kinematic model of drag anchors in seabed soils, and the analytical method for predicting the anchor trajectory in soils will all be examined. The present work remarkably reduces the uncertainties in design and analysis of drag embedment plate anchors, and is beneficial to improving the application of this new type of drag anchor in offshore engineering.展开更多

Methods of forecasting are based on evaluating trajectories of individual solitons and clarification of shocks probability. Solitary waves are considered in solid anisotropic elastic medium and proved that there exist the motion equations solutions in the form of solitary waves. Predicting the trajectories of solitary waves related to the moment problem for the special case of Chebyshev system of functions or exponential problem. This problem is solved using special bijective mapping. Seismic process in the region of Japanese Islands, March 11,2011 is analyzed as an example.展开更多
