A generalized inner product-based wave scattering from an underwater source in a compressible ocean
R. Pethiyagoda, S. Das, B. Wilks +1
Motivated by applications to underwater explosions and volcanic eruptions, this paper considers the evolution of an initial pressure disturbance in the ocean, including effects due…
Water wave scattering by a surface-mounted rectangular anisotropic elastic plate
Ben Wilks, Michael H. Meylan, Zachary J. Wegert +2
This paper considers the problem of water wave scattering by a rectangular anisotropic elastic plate mounted on the ocean surface, with either free, clamped or simply-supported edg…
Time-domain pressure and surface wave propagation over generic topography due to sea floor motion
Ravindra Pethiyagoda, Santu Das, Michael H. Meylan
The surface gravity wave evolution, imitating tsunamis triggered by the ocean floor's arbitrary temporal motion over a generic seafloor topography, is investigated using the linear…
Simultaneous layout and device parameter optimisation of a wave energy park in an irregular sea
Ben Wilks, Michael H. Meylan, Fabien Montiel +4
The design of optimal wave energy parks, namely, arrays of devices known as wave energy converters (WECs) that extract energy from water waves, is an important consideration for th…
