Abstract
The possibility of the conception on an offshore thermal power plant (TEALAND) t hat does not depend on a conventional reclamation method is evaluated here for the purpo se of reducing the cost to supply electric power. The special feature of this concept ion consists in paying attention to the space under the surface of water.
In this conception, the sea occupation area of the power plant is reduced as mu ch as possible by arranging the generation equipment into the layered inside box. The n it reduces the construction cost by constructing both the component and the generation equ ipment simultaneously at land and then shortening the construction time.
In this study, seismic responses of the softlanding power plant are analyzed wi th total and effective stress methods and the equipment specifications are discussed for pra ctical utility.
