In this study, the third-generation wave model WAVEWATCH Ⅲ is employed to simulate wave fields under extreme sea states. The model, integrating the ST6 source term, is validated against observed data, demonstrating its credibility. The spatial distribution of the occurrence probability of strong nonlinear waves during typhoons is shown, and the waves in the straits and the northeastern part of the South China Sea show strong nonlinear characteristics. The high-order spectral model HOS-ocean is employed to simulate the random wave surface series beneath five different platform areas. The waves during the typhoon exhibit strong nonlinear characteristics, and freak waves exist. The space-varying probability model is established to describe the short-term probability distribution of nonlinear wave series. The exceedance probability distributions of the wave surface beneath different platform areas are compared and analyzed. The results show that with an increase in the platform area, the probability of a strong nonlinear wave beneath the platform increases.展开更多

The whole computational region Omega is divided into two subregions. In the near-field around a structure, Omega(2), the flow is governed by 2-D Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations with a turbulence closure model of k-epsilon equations and numerically solved by the improved VOF method; whereas in the subregion Omega(1) (Omega(1) = Omega - Omega(2)) the flow is governed by one-D Boussinesq equations and numerically solved with the predictor-corrector algorithm. The velocity and the wave surface elevation are matched on the common boundary of the two subregions. Numerical tests have been conducted for the case of wave propagation and interaction with a wave barrier. It is shown that the composite model can help perform efficient computation of nonlinear waves in a large region with the complicated flow fields near structures taken into account.展开更多

The domain is divided into the inner domain and the outer domain. The inner domain is the area beneath the ship and the flow is described by the simplified Euler equations. The remaining area is the outer domain and the flow is defined by the higher-order Boussinesq equations in order to consider the nonlinearity of the wave motions. Along the interface boundaries between the inner domain and the outer domain, the volume flux is assumed to be continuous and the wave pressures are equal. Relevant physical experiment is conducted to validate the present mode/and it is shown that the numerical results agree with the experimental data. Compared the coupled model with the flow in the inner domain governed by the Laplace equation, the present coupled model is more efficient and its solution procedure is simpler, which is particularly useful for the study on the effect of the nonlinear waves acting on a fixed box-shaped ship in a large harbor.展开更多

An interesting negative refraction phenomenon has been observed in a bidomain system where one medium supports forwardly propagating waves (normal waves, NWs) and the other AWs. In this paper we find that negative refraction (NR) in nonlinear media has an asymmetric property, i.e., NR can be observed only by applying wave source with proper frequency to one medium, but not the other. Moreover, NR appears always when the incident waves are dense and the refractional waves are sparse. This asymmetry is a particular feature for nonlinear NR, which can neither be observed in linear refraction processes (both positive and negative refractions) nor in nonlinear positive refraction. The mechanism underlying the asymmetry of nonlinear NR are fully understood based on the competition of nonlinear waves.展开更多

The dissipation caused due to viscous effect and the dispersion introduced by transverse inertia were taken into consideration so that steady traveling wave solution can be obtained. Using multi-scale method the nonlinear equation is reduced to a KdV-Burgers equation which corresponds with saddle-spiral heteroclinic orbit on phase plane. Its solution is called the oscillating-solitary wave or saddle-spiral shock wave. If viscous effect or transverse inertia is neglected, the equation is degraded to classical KdV or Burgers equation. The former implies a propagating solitary wave with homoclinic on phase plane, the latter means shock wave and heteroclinic orbit.展开更多

By the application of the completely implicit stagger grid and central difference algorithm, discrete governing equations are obtained. Although the central difference algorithm of second-order accuracy both in time and space domains is used to yield the difference equations, the order of truncation error in the difference equation is the same as that of the third-order derivatives of the Boussinesq equation. In this paper, the correction to the first-order derivative is made, and the accuracy of the difference equation is improved. The verifications of accuracy show that the results of the numerical model are in good agreement with those of analytical Solutions and physical models.展开更多

文摘The wave crest is an important factor for the design of both fixed and floating marine structures.Wave crest height is a dominant parameter in assessing the likelihood of wave-in-deck impact and resultant severe damage.Many empirical and theoretical distribution functions for wave crest heights have been proposed,but there is a lack of agreement between them.It is of significance to develop a better new nonlinear wave crest height distribution model.The progress in the research of wave crest heights is reviewed in this paper.Based on Stokes' wave theory,an approximate nonlinear wave crest-height distribution formula with simple parameters is derived.Two sets of measured data are presented and compared with various theoretical distributions of wave crests obtained from nonlinear wave models and analysis of the comparison is given in detail.The new crest-height distribution model agrees well with observations.Also,the new theoretical distribution is more accurate than the other methods cited in this paper and has a greater range of applications.
文摘In this paper, the wave velocity c is developed as an asymptotic series for weak nonlinear waves in non-uniform flow. Then Fredholm's alternative theorem is applied and it is verified that the first-order approximation c1 equals zero, This generalizes the previous result.
文摘We briefly review the recent progress in marine hydrodynamics.Developments in wave-structure interaction,wave-current interaction,Rogue waves,sloshing in liquid tanks and their applications in ocean engineering,such as Floating Production Storage and Offloading facility(FPSO) and Very Large Floating Structure(VLFS),are presented.
