Irregular Wave Overtopping Rates
Coastal Engineering 1984, 1984 Methods for estimating wave overtopping of coastal structures are reviewed and compared with the very limited available data and with each other. The different methods yield results which can vary more than an order-of-magnitude. For vertical seawalls, the U. S.

Transformation of Irregular Waves in Shoaling Water
Coastal Engineering 1974, 1974 In the numerical method of prediction of wind waves in deep water, Hasselmann's nonlinear interaction theory is applied. This method assumes the energy balance of individual component waves. However, the total energy balance must exist in the transformation of irregular waves in shoaling water. In this investigation, experiments were carried out on the

Operational modal analysis of a spar-type floating platform using frequency domain decomposition method [PDF]
, 2016 System identification of offshore floating platforms is usually performed by testing small-scale models in wave tanks, where controlled conditions, such as still water for free decay tests, regular and irregular wave loading can be represented.

Orbital Velocities in Irregular Waves
Coastal Engineering 1980, 1980 Experimental and theoretical study to determine the applicability of linear wave theory for the description of the velocity field in irregular waves. A comparison between theory and measurement was executed both in frequency and in time domain. In frequency domain by means of the experimentally and theoretically determined frequency response functions ...

OBLIQUE SHOCK WAVE REFLECTION FROM THE WALL [PDF]
Научно-технический вестник информационных технологий, механики и оптики, 2015 Regular and Mach (irregular) reflection of an oblique shock wave from the wall is considered. Criteria for the transition from regular to irregular reflection are described: von Neumann criterion and the criterion for fixed Mach configuration. Specific

A power take-off and control strategy in a test wave energy converter for a moderate wave climate [PDF]
, 2016 The energy in the waves of oceans and seas can be converted to electricity by different types of Wave Energy Converters (WECs). Wave energy conversion is currently widely studied to contribute to the world’s rising energy needs.

IRREGULAR WAVE LOADING ON A CONICAL STRUCTURE
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1988 The horizontal forces, vertical forces and overturning moments exerted by waves on a fixed model of a 45" conical structure are presented. Irregular wave loading tests were conducted for a range of conditions described by base diameter on peak period wave length D/Lp from 0.31 to 1.76, water depth on peak period wave length h/Lp from 0.11 to 0.63, and ...
