Groundbreaking and comprizing articles by expert contributors, this volume provides a comprehensive treatment of VLFSs and their relationship with the sea, marine habitats, the pollution of costal waters and tidal and natural current flow.



It looks in-depth at:







  • VLFS and the colonization of ocean space with their appearance in the waters off developed coastal cities


  • wave properties, which is essential for estimating the loading on the VLFS as well as for modelling structure-fluid interactions


  • hydroelastic and structural analysis of VLFS at an overall level and the cell level


  • the analysis and design of breakwaters


  • simulation models to understand the actual flow of water through the VLFS and to determine the drift forces for the mooring systems


  • anti-corrosion and maintenance systems


  • new research and developments, with emphasis on the Mega-Float, a 1 km long floating test runway.


Well-illustrated with photographs, drawings, equations for mathematical modelling and analysis and extensively referenced, Very Large Floating Structures is ideal for professionals, academics and students of civil and structural engineering.
