Modelling of long waves generated by bottom-tilting wave maker [PDF]
, 2017 In order to generate very long waves in laboratory, a bottom-tilting wave maker is designed and used at the University of Dundee. This new type of wave maker canproduce waves longer than solitary wavesin terms of the effective wavelength, which provides ...

Focused waves and wave–structure interaction in a numerical wave tank [PDF]
Ocean Engineering, 2012 Abstract Sustainable and efficient design solutions are the aim for any engineer. In offshore engineering forces resulting from extreme wave impact are of special interest as these challenge the structure and the crew working in this harsh environment.

Wave Response of a Monocolumn Platform with a Skirt Using CFD and Experimental Approaches
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 This paper aims to investigate the nonlinear motion characteristics of a monocolumn type floater with skirts numerically and experimentally. Wave calibration, free decay, and regular wave tests were simulated using a computational fluid dynamics (CFD ...

Spontaneous emergence of rogue waves in partially coherent waves: a quantitative experimental comparison between hydrodynamics and optics [PDF]
, 2017 Rogue waves are extreme and rare fluctuations of the wave field that have been discussed in many physical systems. Their presence substantially influences the statistical properties of an incoherent wave field.

Time-Reversal of Nonlinear Waves - Applicability and Limitations [PDF]
, 2016 Time-reversal (TR) refocusing of waves is one of fundamental principles in wave physics. Using the TR approach, "Time-reversal mirrors" can physically create a time-reversed wave that exactly refocus back, in space and time, to its original source ...

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 The frequency characteristics of free surface elevation time histories of shallow-water sloshing in a three-dimensional rectangular tank is presented. The numerical model for sloshing motion uses an accurate velocity potential Boussinesq-type equation. A

Numerical simulation of liquid sloshing in a partially filled container with inclusion of compressibility effects [PDF]
, 2009 A numerical scheme of study is developed to model compressible two-fluid flows simulating liquid sloshing in a partially filled tank. For a two-fluid system separated by an interface as in the case of sloshing, not only a Mach-uniform scheme is required,
