The unique topography and location of the Tibetan Plateau (TP) often result in extreme weather events, which have led to disastrous consequences for the TP and its downstream regions. The TP summer monsoon (TPSM) and the TP vortex (TPV) play key roles in the transfer and redistribution of water vapour during the summer months on the TP and are increasingly active in summer and disappear in winter. However, it remains uncertain...

Experimental measurement and numerical simulations were carried out for investigating the impact loading behavior of platform decks under regular and irregular wave actions. In the numerical simulation section, a full-scale numerical wave tank was established using STAR-CCM+ software. A decreased tendency can be observed for an increased relative length of platform when the incident wave length is double the deck length. The i...
