Design loads for wave impacts -- introducing the Probabilistic Adaptive Screening (PAS) method for predicting extreme non-linear loads on maritime structures

Sanne M. van Essen, Harleigh C. Seyffert

Wave impact loads on maritime structures can cause casualties, damage, pollution and operational delays. Consequently, their extreme values should be accounted for in the design of…

In-situ measurements of void fractions and bubble size distributions in bubble curtains

Simon Beelen, Martijn van Rijsbergen, Miloš Birvalski +2

We report the development of a novel measurement system designed to measure bubble properties in bubble curtains (i.e. planar bubble plumes) in-situ alongside acoustical measuremen…

On wedge-slamming pressures

Utkarsh Jain, Vladimir Novakovic, Hannes Bogaert +1

The water entry of a wedge has become a model test in marine and naval engineering research. Wagner theory, originating in 1932, predicts impact pressures, and accounts for contrib…

Stabilized RANS simulation of surf zone kinematics and boundary layer processes beneath large-scale plunging waves over a breaker bar

B. E. Larsen, D. A. van der A., J. van der Zanden +2

This paper presents numerical simulations of a bichromatic wave group propagating and breaking over a fixed breaker bar. The simulations are performed using a newly stabilized Reyn…
