Abstract: In this paper, a nonlinear boundary element method (BEM) is developed for investigating air cavity formation during the highspeed water entry of wedges. A technique is proposed for dynamic regridding of free surface ...

Abstract: Interface dynamics of twophase flow, with relevance for leakage of oil retained by mechanical oil barriers, is studied by means of a twodimensional (2D) latticeBoltzmann method (LBM) combined with a phasefield model for ...

Abstract: A new numerical 2D cell method has been proposed by the authors, based on representing the velocity potential in each cell by harmonic polynomials. The method was named the harmonic polynomial cell (HPC) method. The method ...

Abstract: The dynamic stability of a surfacepiercing plate, advancing with high forward speed in the horizontal plane, is investigated in the scope of linear theory. The hydrodynamic forces on the plate in sway and yaw are presented ...

Abstract: The formulation of the secondorder wavecurrentbody problem in the inertial coordinate system involves higherorder derivatives in the body boundary condition. A new method taking advantage of the bodyfixed coordinate system ...

Abstract: Numerical simulations and experiments of an elastic circular collar of a floating fish farm are reported. The floater model without netting structure is moored with nearly horizontal moorings and tested in regular deep-water ...
