Artificial islands used as infrastructure in aquatic environments
Very large floating structure
Very large floating structures (VLFSs) or very large floating platforms (VLFPs) are artificial islands, which may be constructed to create floating airports, bridges, breakwaters, piers and docks, storage facilities (for oil and natural gas), wind and solar power plants, for military purposes, to create industrial space, emergency bases, entertainment facilities (such as casinos), recreation parks, mobile offshore structures and even for habitation. Currently, several different concepts have been proposed for building floating cities or huge living complexes. Some units have been constructed and are presently in operation. Floating structures offer several advantages over more permanent structures which might extend from the shore into open water: they do not cause silt deposition in deep harbors; they have not been shown to disrupt ocean currents; construction may be completed onshore; they are not prone to seismic shock.
