WaveMIMO Methodology: Numerical Wave Generation of a Realistic Sea State [PDF]
Journal of Applied and Computational Mechanics, 2021 This paper presents a methodology that allows the numerical simulation of realistic sea waves, called WaveMIMO methodology, which is based on the imposition of transient discrete data as prescribed velocity on a finite volume computational model ...

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 Severe shoreline erosions are commonly observed due to the side effects of breakwaters constructed to protect the habitat. These breakwaters can cause wave energy differences behind the structure due to diffraction, inducing longshore sediment transport ...

On Consistent Parameterizations for Both Dominant Wind‐Waves and Spectral Tail Directionality
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 128, Issue 4, April 2023., 2023 Abstract Numerical wave models have been developed to reproduce the evolution of waves generated in all directions and over a wide range of wavelengths. The amount of wave energy in the different directions and wavelength is the result of a number of physical processes that are not well understood and that may not be represented in parameterizations ...

Storm surge contributions to flood hazards on Canada's Atlantic Coast
Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 15, Issue 3, September 2022., 2022 Abstract A numerical hydrodynamic model was used to simulate the generation and evolution of storm surges in Atlantic Canada in response to synoptic‐scale surface wind and atmospheric pressure fields. The modelling was conducted as part of a broader initiative to support community‐scale inundation modelling and coastal flood risk assessment for ...

A review of wave energy technology from a research and commercial perspective
IET Renewable Power Generation, Volume 15, Issue 14, Page 3065-3090, 26 October 2021., 2021 Abstract Although wave energy prototypes have been proposed for more than 100 years, they have still not reached full commercialisation. The reasons for this are varied, but include the diversity of device operating principles, the variety of onshore/nearshore/offshore deployment possibilities, the diversity of the wave climate at various potential ...
