Abstract: Pressure fluctuations propagation within lining slab joints is one of the main causes of linings damage in stilling basins downstream of large dams. Based on three hydraulic models for pressure fluctuations propagation ...

Abstract: This paper proposes an approximate solution for the varying speed impact of three-dimensional (3D) bodies on the water surface, with the assumptions that the fluid is considered to be incompressible, inviscid, weightless, ...

Abstract: The impacts of a plate on an asymmetric water wedge with constant and varying speeds are studied in this paper by considering the fluid to be incompressible, inviscid, and weightless; the effect of surface tension to be ...

Abstract: The varying speed impact of wedge bodies on a water surface is studied numerically and theoretically to provide a fast and accurate prediction of the pressure on the wedge surface and the motion of wedge bodies during the ...

Abstract: The transonic buffet over large aircraft wings seriously affects flight safety and ride comfort; hence, improving transonic buffet characteristics by active or passive control methods has been the focus issue of international ...

Abstract: This study deals with the pressure peak position shift with deadrise angle during the initial phase of a two-dimensional (2D) wedge water entry. The finite volume method with volume of fluid (VOF) and dynamic mesh technique ...
