A Computational Fluid Dynamics Approach for Modeling the Fluid–Structure Interaction of Offshore Aquaculture Cages and Waves
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Open ocean aquaculture cages became a promising alternative to traditional fish cage designs recently. The offshore environment implies larger loads on the structure and thus higher risk for fish loss. Floating rigid ...
Efficient Calculation of Hydrodynamic Loads on Offshore Wind Substructures Including Slamming Forces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Estimation of the hydrodynamic loads based on strip theory using the Morrison equation provides an inexpensive method for load estimation for the offshore industry. The advantage of this approach is that it requires only ...
Verification of a Free-Surface Pressure Term Extension to Represent Ships in a Nonhydrostatic Shallow-Water-Equations Solver
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In recent years, increasing ship sizes and associated increasing wave loads have led to a demand for prediction tools quantifying the ship-induced loads on waterways. Depth-averaged numerical models, using a free-surface ...
A Numerical Study of the Hydrodynamics of an Offshore Fish Farm Using REEF3D
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this article, the hydrodynamics of and nonlinear interaction between the large offshore fish farm “ShenLan 1” and regular waves are investigated using the open-source computational fluid dynamics (CFD) toolbox REEF3D. ...
