The Impact of a Deep-Water Plunging Breaker on a Partially Submerged Cube
An Wang, Christine M. Ikeda, David A. Drazen +3
The impact of a plunging breaker on a partially submerged cube is explored experimentally in a wave tank equipped with a programable wave maker. The experiments are conducted with…
An Integrated Experimental and Computational Investigation into the Dynamic Loads and Free-surface Wave-Field Perturbations Induced by Head-Sea Regular Waves on a 1/8.25 Scale-Model of the R/V ATHENA
Toby Ratcliffe, Lisa Minnick, Thomas T. O'Shea +3
A 1/8.25 scale-model of the U.S. Navy Research Vessel ATHENA was tested in regular head-sea waves to obtain data for validation of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) predictive too…
An Experimental and Computational Study of Breaking Wave Impact Forces
Thomas C. Fu, Anne M. Fullerton, Susan Brewton +2
The impact forces generated by the impact of a breaking wave are poorly understood. These impulsive hydrodynamic loads to a ship's hull are of short duration relative to ship motio…
A Detailed Assessment of Numerical Flow Analysis (NFA) to Predict the Hydrodynamics of a Deep-V Planing Hull
Thomas C. Fu, Thomas T. O'Shea, Carolyn Q. Judge +3
Over the past few years much progress has been made in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) in its ability to accurately simulate the hydrodynamics associated with a deep-V monohull…
The Impact of a Deep-Water Plunging Breaker
Christine Ikeda, Thomas T. O'Shea, Kyle A. Brucker +5
The impact of a plunging breaking wave (wavelength approximately 1.3m) on a rigidly mounted rigid cube structure (dimension 0.31m) that is partially submerged is explored through e…
A Comparison of Model-Scale Experimental Measurements and Computational Predictions for a Large Transom-Stern Wave
David A. Drazen, Anne M. Fullerton, Thomas C. Fu +8
The flow field generated by a transom stern hull form is a complex, broad-banded, three-dimensional system marked by a large breaking wave. This unsteady multiphase turbulent flow…
