MOORED SHIP RESPONSE IN IRREGULAR WAVES
The traditional concept of representing a "random" sea state by just a variance spectral density has been found to be insufficient for modelling the slow drift oscillations of large moored ships. This paper illustrates, through experimental investigations, the importance of including wave grouping as an additional design parameter.

Experimental investigation of the mooring system of a wave energy converter in operating and extreme wave conditions [PDF]
A proper design of the mooring systems for Wave Energy Converters (WECs) requires an accurate investigation of both operating and extreme wave conditions.

The most common methods for predicting ship roll motions in a specified sea state are direct measurements of motions in a representative irregular wave realisation (time domain) or calculations of motions from response amplitude operators (RAOs) in the ...

Orbital Velocities in Irregular Waves
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 ...

The propagation of shallow-water waves may cause liquefaction of the seabed, thereby reducing its support capacity for pipelines and potentially leading to pipeline settlement or deformation.

Slow Drift-Oscillations of a Ship in Irregular Waves [PDF]
A procedure to calculate horizontal slow drift excitation forces on an infinitely long horizontal cylinder in irregular beam sea waves is presented. The hydrodynamic boundary-value problem is solved correctly to second order in wave amplitude. Results in

A Numerical Study on the Performance of the 66k DWT Bulk Carrier in Regular and Irregular Waves
Accurate resistance performance evaluation is essential to predict the minimum propulsion horsepower required for ships in real sea. Therefore, in this paper, the added resistance performance of K-Supramax in various wave conditions was calculated using ...

Rescattering corrections and self-consistent metric in Planckian scattering [PDF]
Starting from the ACV approach to transplanckian scattering, we present a development of the reduced-action model in which the (improved) eikonal representation is able to describe particles' motion at large scattering angle and, furthermore, UV-safe ...

Understanding the condition of a ship during operation is crucial for ensuring hull safety. This can be achieved either by directly monitoring the ship's hull or by using response estimation models when the wave field is known.
