Computational Model for Wave Attenuation by Flexible Vegetation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Coastal vegetation has a well-known effect of attenuating waves; however, quantifiable measures of attenuation for general wave and vegetation scenarios are not well known, so field and laboratory studies must be performed ...
Simulating Oscillatory and Sliding Displacements of Caisson Breakwaters Using a Coupled Approach
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this work, a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model was coupled with a dynamic response model for simulating oscillatory and sliding motions of a composite caisson breakwater subject to impulsive wave loads. The CFD ...
Hydrodynamic Analysis for Mangrove Forests under Wave and Current Effects Using High-Order Phase-Resolving CutFEM
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the implementation of a high-order phase-resolving cut finite-element method (CutFEM) to simulate the hydrodynamic features within an artificial mangrove forest caused by wave and current based on the ...
