Forced water entry and exit of two-dimensional bodies through a free surface [PDF]
, 2014 This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.The forced water entry and exit of two-dimensional bodies through a free surface is computed for various 2D bodies (symmetric wedges, asymmetric wedges ...

Viscoplastic water entry [PDF]
Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2019 The impact of viscoplastic droplets on a free surface of water is studied. The droplet undergoes an elasto-plastic deformation at the early stages of water entry. At large time, the yield stress dominates; therefore, the droplet solidifies and reaches an equilibrium shape.

The Challenge of Water Entries
International Journal of Aquatic Research and Education, 2022 The authors presented a poster at the International Life Saving Foundation's World Conference on Drowning Prevention 2019 in Durban, South Africa titled, "Finding an Aquatic Voice," that was the basis for this article. The conference theme was "Growing Global Drowning Prevention Capacity,” and the aim of our poster’s contribution to the conference was ...

An experimental investigation into the constant velocity water entry of wedge-shaped sections [PDF]
, 2008 Constant velocity water entry is important in understanding planing and slamming of marine vessels. A test rig has been developed that drives a wedge section with end plates down guides to enter the water vertically at near constant velocity. Entry force

Numerical Study of Wave Effect on Aircraft Water-Landing Performance
Applied Sciences, 2022 Aircraft, such as amphibious planes, airliners, helicopters and re-entry capsules, are frequently subject to impacting loads from water-landing/ditching on various free surfaces, especially under wave conditions.

Cylinder water entry on a perturbed water surface
Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2023 The perturbations existing on a breaking wavefront can be a potential explanation for the slamming pressure variability in wave impacts. Here, we investigate the effect of these perturbations by forced vertical slamming of a two-dimensional circular cylinder with constant downward velocity on standing waves. Through experimental modelling and numerical

Ship Loading Influence on the Slamming Impact of Typical Sections of an S-175 Container Ship
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020 This paper investigates the influence of ship-loading condition on slamming during water entry. Three typical sections of the S-175 container ship, namely the bow, parallel middle body and stern, under three different loading conditions are studied. Full-
