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...

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...

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...

Water wave impact on a wet deck is an important issue in ocean engineering, and the plate-shaped structure in the splash zone tends to suffer tremendous impact loads. This work presents a method for predicting the wave slamming uplift force on a fixed pl...

In view of the widespread damage to coastal bridges during recent tsunamis (2004 Indian Ocean and 2011 in Japan) large-scale hydrodynamic experiments of tsunami wave impact on a bridge with open girders were conducted in the Large Wave Flume at Oregon St...
