| Abstract | Dynamically embedded plate anchors are rocket shaped anchors that penetrate to a target depth in the seabed by the kinetic energy obtained through free-fall. After embedment the central shaft is retrieved leaving the anchor flukes vertically embedded in the seabed. The flukes constitute the load bearing element as a plate anchor. This paper provides an overview of an experimental and numerical study undertaken to provide the first performance data for this anchor concept. The experimental work includes geotechnical centrifuge modelling and field tests using three different reduced anchor scales, whereas the numerical work focused on investigating anchor capacity for a rage of geometries, embedment depths and seabed conditions. The experimental work indicates that expected tip embedments are in the range 2 to 3.3 times the anchor length and depend on the impact velocity, anchor mass and shear strength of the soil. As with other plate anchors, the anchor needs to key before maximum capacity can be mobilised. Both the centrifuge and field experiments show that this keying and pullout behaviour is typical of other vertically installed plate anchors, where the main issue is the loss in embedment during keying. Both the experimental and numerical studies showed that the capacity of the DEPLA is much higher than that of other dynamically installed anchors with capacities up to 40 times the dry weight of the plate and plate bearing capacity factors of about 15. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
