Set-Up Due to Irregular Waves

Coastal Engineering 1972, 1972
Energy losses in breaking irregular waves are estimated on the assumption that a wave, while breaking, loses only that portion of its height which would be in excess of the breaker height for the given wave period and the mean local depth. This leads to expressions for the magnitude of the radiation stresses as a function of the distance offshore. From

Parallel dictionaries with local rules on AVL and brother trees [PDF]

, 1997
We present a set of local rules to deal with dictionaries, having as a main advantage their possible scheduling in a highly synchronized way to get parallel dictionaries on AVLs.

Mechanical behavior of irregular fibers part III : the flexural buckling behavior

, 2002
Fiber buckling behavior is associated with fabric-evoked prickle, which affects clothing comfort and aesthetics. In this paper, the flexural buckling behavior of irregular or nonuniform fibers is studied using the finite element method (FEM).

Avalanches in the Weakly Driven Frenkel-Kontorova Model

, 1994
A damped chain of particles with harmonic nearest-neighbor interactions in a spatially periodic, piecewise harmonic potential (Frenkel-Kontorova model) is studied numerically.

Gasdynamic wave interaction in two spatial dimensions [PDF]

, 2003
We examine the interaction of shock waves by studying solutions of the two-dimensional Euler equations about a point. The problem is reduced to linear form by considering local solutions that are constant along each ray and thereby exhibit no length ...

Adaptive Damping PTO Control of Wave Energy Converter for Irregular Waves Supported by Wavelet Transformation

Energies
The power take-off (PTO) control strategy plays a crucial role in the heave response and power absorption of wave energy converters (WECs). This paper presents an adaptive damping PTO system to increase the power absorption of an oscillating-float WEC ...

Statistical Analysis of Wedge Effect on the Seakeeping of a Planing Hull in Irregular Waves at the Onset of the Planing Region

Journal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2018
In the current paper, different experiments are conducted on a high speed planing craft in irregular waves, with and without a wedge. Performance and seakeeping aspects of these planing hulls in the form of trim, rise-up, and resistance in regular waves ...
