HEDGES, MEng, MICE* This Paper reviews some of the recent progress made in understanding how waves behave in the presence of currents. Examples are given of situations when it is important for the design engineer to account for the complex interactions between waves and currents. Many of the relevant equations are introduced. Items discussed include: the description of waves travelling on uniform currents and the associated water-particle motions, the interpretation of subsurface pressure measurements, current-induced wave refraction, and the influence of currents on wave spectra...

By content, it is often less ambitious and conclusions may be less strongly drawn or even absent altogether. Notes are almost invariably shorter. And yet it is these samecharacteristics whichoffer authors greater freedom. Partiallydeveloped be ideas canbe floated; asingle aspect of a jobmay be examined; observations can described withoutan accompanying rigorous dissection...

HANNA,BSc, PhD, FICE* Introduction Production anchors are usually tested to a small overload. In special cases additional reinforcement is provided to enable a loadof up to twice the design load to be applied. As a consequenceit is rare for an anchor to be tested to failure, yet the ultimate load conditionis of great interest. In the early 1960s Kondner' proposed a two-constant hyperbolic stress-strain relationship for soil element behaviour and confirmed the practicalvalidity of the relationship for sands and clays, using shear box tests and plate loading tests...

HANNA, BSc, PhD, FICE* Introduction The load testing of anchors is in many respects similar to the testing of tension piles. Because the tendon steel is normally loaded to high levelsof stress and anchors may bevery long, error in the measurement of the movement of the anchor head can be significant. To obtain absolute movement data it is imperative that all movements are referred to an independent datum...

Going one step back, it would be the geology and topography of the site, combined with the tidal currents, that dictated that the crossing had to be a bridge instead of a bored or immersed tube tunnel...
