Application of an overset mesh based numerical wave tank for modelling realistic free-surface hydrodynamic problems

open access: yesOcean Engineering, 2019
This paper presents a numerical wave tank based on the overset mesh approach. Overset mesh is favourable to the moving mesh method owing to its ability to represent complex geometries whilst maintaining a good quality mesh, especially for large amplitude

Linear irregular wave generation in a numerical wave tank

open access: greenApplied Ocean Research, 2015
In the design of any floating or fixed marine structure, it is vital to test models in order to understand the fluid/structure interaction involved. A relatively inexpensive method, compared to physical model testing, of achieving this is to numerically model the structure and the wave conditions in a numerical wave tank.

Simulation of Irregular Waves in a Numerical Wave Tank [PDF]

open access: yesPolish 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 ...

A Preliminary Study of Breaking Waves Phenomenon on a Numerical Wave Tank

open access: diamondIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2020
Abstract The detailed prediction of breaking waves transformation may be a main concern within the ocean structures design and development at the top of submerged flat reefs. In this preliminary analysis, phenomenon of solitary wave on the reef can be simply interpreted in two-dimensional numerical wave tank (NWT), based on the ...
