Thrust Enhancement of DTMB 5415 with Elastic Flapping Foil in Regular Head Waves
Recent studies indicate that bow foil biomimetic systems can significantly improve ship propulsion in waves. In this paper, the DTMB 5415 ship model is taken as the object and a semi-active elastic flapping foil is proposed to install at its bow ...

Visualization of the Onset of Scour under a Pipeline in Waves
This paper visualizes the onset of scour under a pipeline in regular waves and studies the mechanism in this process. After the test started, the sand particles near the downstream mudline began to oscillate periodically, probably due to the distribution
