Gravity Wave Trapping by Series of Horizontally Stratified Wave Absorbers Away From Seawall
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The fluid oscillation between the rigid wall and stratified wave absorber is analyzed in the context of the linearized water wave theory. The stratified wave absorber is composed of multiple horizontal layers considering ...
Wave Action Analysis of Multiple Bottom Fixed Semi-Circular Breakwaters in the Presence of a Floating Dock
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The comprehensive usage of an array of natural or artificial semi-circular breakwaters (SCBs) as supporting structures to secure the floating/fixed structures are received increasingly more consideration in recent years. ...
Wave Trapping Efficiency of a Flexible Membrane Near a Partially Reflecting Seawall
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The gravity wave interaction with a flexible membrane placed at a finite distance from the partially reflecting seawall is analyzed under the framework of linear water wave theory using the multi-domain boundary element ...
Hydrodynamic Performance of an Array of Stratified Pile Rock Breakwaters Placed on Elevated Seabed
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The present study outlines the hydrodynamic performance of stratified pile-rock breakwaters (SPRBs) in series using the analytical calculation under the framework of linearized potential flow theory. The rubble mounds are ...
Enhancement in Hydrodynamic Performance of a Quarter-Circular Breakwater Using a Porous Shield
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The study evaluates the hydrodynamic performance of quarter-circular breakwater (QCB) with various types of porous shields (say retrofits) under incident waves. The QCB with (i) vertical shield, (ii) seaside quarter-circular ...
Hydrodynamic Performance of an Inverted Trapezoidal Breakwater with Permeable Retrofit
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The scattering of incident waves by a surface-piercing inverted trapezoidal breakwater (SPTB) encircled by retrofit is numerically examined based on the assumptions of potential flow theory. The dual boundary element method ...
