Loading and Response of Cylinders in Waves
Coastal Engineering 1978, 1978 The nature of the wave-induced flow around a circular cylinder is to a large extent determined by the ratio of water-particle orbit size to cylinder diameter, characterized in regular waves by the Keulegan- Carpenter number KC (see Appendix II for definitions].

Wave Loads on a Point-Absorbing Wave Energy Device in Extreme Waves [PDF]
Journal of Ocean and Wind Energy, 2015 The survivability of a 1:20 scale point-absorbing Wave Energy Converter (WEC) model is considered in extreme wave tests with focused waves embedded in regular wave backgrounds and with time series of irregular waves. The wave heights were many times higher than the maximal stroke length of the device.

Wave Load Mitigation by Perforation of Monopiles
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020 The design of large diameter monopiles (8–10 m) at intermediate to deep waters is largely driven by the fatigue limit state and mainly due to wave loads.

Difference in ship motion and wave load in long and short crested irregular waves
Zhongguo Jianchuan Yanjiu, 2023 ObjectiveTo investigate ship motion and load responses in realistic 3D waves and overcome the limitations of the traditional 2D wave assumption, this paper develops a method for predicting ship motion and load responses in short-crested waves.

Wave Loads on Horizontal Cylinders
Coastal Engineering 1978, 1978 The problem of predicting wave induced loads on cylinders is an enormously complex one. It is clear from the scatter present in most experimental determinations of force coefficients that there are many individual factors which influence the mechanisms of flow induced loading.

A NUMERICAL STUDY ON THE VISCOUS EFFECTS OF WAVES TRAVELLING PAST A WEAKLY SUBMERGED CYLINDER
Brodogradnja, 2016 The interaction of waves with a weakly submerged horizontal circular cylinder is studied numerically, solving 2-D Navier-Stokes equations with reference to former experimental sessions in a wave flume.

Coastal Engineering, 2020 This paper considers wave loads on bottom mounted vertical cylinders in the regime relevant to offshore wind turbine monopiles, examining the higher harmonics of the loading from non-breaking waves which are important in engineering design.

Sustainability, 2020 Current mid-fidelity modeling approaches for floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) have been found to underpredict the nonlinear, low-frequency wave excitation and the response of semisubmersible FOWTs. To examine the cause of this underprediction, the

Wave impact loads on wave-piercing catamarans [PDF]
Ocean Engineering, 2017 Wave slamming is investigated for the 112 m INCAT wave-piercer catamaran with reference to experimental work conducted at full scale, numerical computation by CFD and FEA and testing at model scale using a 2.5 m segmented hydro-elastic model. The segmented model was tested in regular head seas to investigate the magnitude and location of the dynamic ...
