.... In this study, a new system is proposed, that can enhance not only the efficiency of the system by using resonant phenomena in wave channel but also the economic feasibility by using existing caisson type breakwater as support structure. To evaluate the performance of proposed system, numerical analyses...

... on a wave channel, piercing the free surface and subjected to regular waves were carried out by the researcher (Akyildiz,2002). Experiments to measure the pressure distributions on a vertical cylinder were carried out in a 4.9 m wide and 28.1 m long wave channel with a constant water depth of 0.45 m...

... is the submergence depth and H is the wave height. Decreasing these ratios will increase the transmission and thus decrease the effectiveness of the structure. The ratio B/L is almost zero, which corresponds to a high transmission (Van Der Plas, 2007). ocean engineering wave channel case m-ii reservoir...

... ABSTRACT A numerical wave channel for the simulation of realistic offshore conditions based on the solution of the unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations is presented. The methodology combines a non-linear wave model with a Volume of Fluid calculation to generate an unsteady sea...

... ABSTRACT In order to validate an inhouse computer code, RIAM-CMEN (Computation Method for Extremely Nonlinear hydrodynamics), based on CFD techniques, the forced oscillation test in heave was conducted in a wave channel for obtaining the data of the added-mass and damping coefficients of a box...

... ABSTRACT Results from previous tests in a wave channel with a heaving axisymmetric floating body, connected to the piston of a pump, are compared with a new time-domain mathematical model, for which model parameters have been chosen to obtain reasonable fit with experimental results. Comparisons are made...

...-UP The experiments were carried out in the LARGE WAVE CHANNEL of the FORSCHUNGSZENTRUM KOSTE (Coastal Research Centre) in Hannover, Germany. This channel has a length of 309 m, a width of 5 m and a depth of 7 m. A steel cylinder with a diameter of 0.7 m was installed on the horizontal channel bottom...

... ABSTRACT This paper describes the application of a fiber-optic LDA system to measure the velocity field, especially the boundary layer, around a circular cylinder placed near the bed of a large wave channel. The laser head is located inside the cylinder and the beams are focused in the flow...

... ABSTRACT This paper presents a pair of newly derived Boussinesq equations for three-dimensional nonlinear shallow-water waves coexisting with ambient currents. The propagation of a cnoidal wave and its interaction with uniform currents in a wave channel is simulated. A set of open boundary...
