Clarifying the mechanical characteristics of gas hydrate-bearing sediments (GHBS) from a mechanical perspective is crucial for ensuring the long-term, safe, and efficient extraction of natural gas hydrates. In this study, seabed soft clay from the northe...

The laboratory miniature vane shear test (MVST) has been widely used to measure the undrained shear strength of marine sediments in offshore engineering. However, the transfer of the soil sample in tube samplers from the seabed to the laboratory releases...

The environmental effects of ship propellers were not even close to fully examined before the current massive ships were introduced to sea trade. Larger ships, result in greater length, beam, draft and propulsion power. Of concern here is the under-keel ...

Turbulence related to flow oscillations near the seabed, in the wave bottom boundary layer (WBBL), is the phenomenon responsible for the suspension and transport of sediments. The vertical distribution of turbulent eddy viscosity within the WBBL is a key...

Conventional sediment classification methods based on Multibeam Echo System (MBES) data have low accuracy since the correlation between features and sediment has not been fully considered. Moreover, their poor resistance to the residual error of MBES bac...

The stratigraphic-diffusive type of gas hydrate system is formed by microbial methane produced in a shallow slope space when flowing laterally into hydrate stable zones and is worth studying for both energy supply and academic understanding. A deposition...

For a low-frequency sound signal propagating in a two-dimensionally inhomogeneous shallow-water waveguide, the influence of random bathymetry (fluctuating bottom boundary) was considered based on the local-mode approach and statistical modeling using fir...
