Experimental Investigation of Wave-Induced Hydroelastic Vibrations of Trimaran in Oblique Irregular Waves

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2016
The irregular wave condition, especially the oblique irregular wave condition, is the actual circumstances when trimaran is sailing in sea. In order to identify the characteristic of the wave-induced hydroelastic vibration in irregular waves, as well as ...

Seakeeping analysis of two ships advancing parallel for underway replenishment

open access: yesZhongguo Jianchuan Yanjiu, 2017
Due to the wave and hydrodynamic interaction between two ships advancing parallel on the ocean, their six-degrees-of-freedom motions are much more complex during replenishment. The seakeeping performance of two vessels is analyzed with AQWA. On the basis

Irregular Wave Transformation in a Boussinesq Wave Model

open access: yesCoastal Engineering 1986, 1986
Numerical wave models for shallow water waves are of particular importance for the calculation of the wave climate in harbours and coastal areas. Especially nonlinear time domain models, which are based on the Boussinesq-Wave- Equations, may be helpful in the future for simulating the interaction of currents with refraction, diffraction, reflection and

Energy Spectra of Irregular Surf Waves [PDF]

open access: yesCoastal Engineering 1976, 1976
The investigations under consideration are based on synchronous measurements of water level deflections n(t) at some positions in a beach profile with a slope of approximately 1:40. Surf conditions are studied during a severe storm surge as well as during periods of attenuating wave action.

An Improved Hydraulic Power Take-Off Unit Based on Dual Fluid Energy Storage for Reducing the Power Fluctuation Problem in the Wave Energy Conversion System

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
The power take-off (PTO) stability is one of the most important concerns for wave energy converters (WECs). The PTO unit converts the mechanical energy produced by the wave absorber (WA) unit into useful electrical energy. Due to the drastic input energy
