Abstract

Double-wall vertical breakwaters have been widely used during the past centuries, the using of double-wall
sections which consist of combined sections have increased because of the progressive elaboration that has
been happened in the civil and coastal engineering industry in offshore fields. This paper is discussing the
deformation and the stability analysis for the double-wall vertical breakwaters for several return periods of
earthquake and several breakwaters geometries. One of the advantages of studying stability and
serviceability of the double-wall vertical breakwaters for different earthquake return periods, is to ensure the
safety and the clearance spaces for using the suitable area of the double-wall vertical breakwaters as wharfs
and as a path for the pipelines in the LPG harbours.
