Simulation of Irregular Waves in a Numerical Wave Tank [PDF]
Polish Maritime Research, 2015 The time domain boundary element method was utilized to simulate the propagation of the irregular waves in a numerical wave tank. The problem was solved in a time-marching scheme, upon the irregular waves being fed through the inflow boundary, in which ...

Predicting Wind Wave Suppression on Irregular Long Waves
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020 The applicability of the wind wave suppression model developed by Chen and Belcher (2000) to irregular wave environments is investigated in this study. Monochromatic and irregular wave environments were simulated in the W2 (Wind/Wave) laboratory at the ...

Motion of Floating Caisson with Extended Bottom Slab under Regular and Irregular Waves
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 Floating caissons may oscillate primarily due to ocean waves during towing operations. Reducing the oscillation based on the extension part (footing) of the bottom slab of the caissons can efficiently increase the safety of towing maneuvers. However, the
