The numerical modelling of steep waves interacting with structures
- Abstract:
-
The interaction of steep waves with structures is a complex problem which is still not fully understood, and is of great importance for the design of offshore structures. A particular problem of interest is the phenomenon of ringing which is highly nonlinear.
In this thesis a number of inviscid free surface flow problems are simulated using a finite element model. The free surface boundary condition is fully nonlinear, meaning nonlinear effects up to very high order can be simulate...
