To investigate the overtopping and slamming phenomena that occur in the interactions between waves and oscillating surge wave energy converters (OSWECs), a two-dimensional numerical wave flume was established using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) soft...

Bows and stems are often subjected to wave slamming loads. Stiffened plates with curvatures in both longitudinal and transversal directions are the basic members of these structures. As a result, it is important to investigate the lateral ultimate streng...

During the towing of semisubmersible platforms, waves impact and superpose in front of the platform to form a ridge shaped ?water ridge?, which protrudes near the platform and produces a large slamming pressure. The water ridges occur frequently in the t...

Conventional liquefied natural gas (LNG) cargo vessels are imposed with tank-fill limitations as precautions to prevent structural damage and stability-loss due to high-impact sloshing, enforcing cargo volume-fills to be lower than 10% or higher than 70%...

In this paper, we present a fully coupled computational fluid dynamic (CFD) and discrete module beam (DMB) method for the numerical prediction of nonlinear hydroelastic responses of a ship advancing in regular and focused wave conditions. A two-way data ...

Freak waves have great peak energy, short duration, great contingency, and strong nonlinear characteristics, and can cause severe damage to ships and marine structures. In this study, numerical simulations in conjunction with experimental tests are appli...

Given the documented wave-induced damage of elevated coastal decks during extreme natural hazards (e.g., hurricanes) in the last two decades, it is of utmost significance to decipher the wave-structure-interaction of complex deck geometries and quantify ...

This work evaluates the survivability of a point-absorbing wave energy converter at sea states along and inside the 50-year environmental contour for a selected-site in North Sea, by utilizing CFD simulations. Focused wave groups based on NewWave theory ...

Coastal ocean flows are interconnected by a complex suite of processes. Examples are inlet jets, river mouth effluents, ocean currents, surface gravity waves, internal waves, wave overtopping, and wave slamming on coastal structures. It has become necess...

In design storm sea states, wave-in-deck forces need to be analysed for fixed and floating offshore platforms. Due to the complex physics of wave impact phenomena, numerical analyses should be complemented by model test data. With a large statistical var...
