The Numerical Simulation of Ship Waves Using Cartesian-Grid and Volume-of-Fluid Methods
Douglas G. Dommermuth, Thomas T. O'Shea, Donald C. Wyatt +5
Cartesian-grid methods in combination with immersed-body and volume-of-fluid methods are ideally suited for simulating breaking waves around ships. A surface panelization of the sh…
