.... As a validation, we firstly study the diffracted waves by a circular cylinder. And then, the cases that circular cylinders with different flares are studied. To prove capacity of current scheme, nonlinear wave diffraction by ship geometry is also studied and by comparison with our experiment, pronounced agreement...

... of water waves is, in general, inherently nonlinear and unsteady has been found through a variety study by many researchers. Numerical modeling of nonlinear wave diffraction around large offshore structures are needs to obtain more accurate wave force and run-up predications than those of linear...

... for the nonlinear wave diffraction is derived in analytical form according to the analytical solution of the second order wave diffraction due to a vertical circular cylinder derived by the present authors. The eigenfunction expansion technique is applied to the structure surface boundary condition of the derived...
