Fully Nonlinear Simulation of Resonant Wave Motion in Gap between Two Structures
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a fully nonlinear numerical investigation on the resonant waves in the gap between two floating barges by using the Quasi Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian finite element method (QALEFEM) based on the fully nonlinear potential theory. In the investigations, two identical floating barges undergo forced oscillation in heave. The wave elevations and the force acting on barges are recorded. The nonlinearity involved, the effects of the width of the gap and the draft of the barge on the significance of the nonlinearity are discussed in details.

In this paper we investigate a biological framework to generate and adapt a motion pattern so that can be energy efficient. In fact, the motion pattern in legged animals and human emerges among interaction between a central pattern generator neural network called CPG and the musculoskeletal system. Here, we model this neuro - musculoskeletal system by means of a leg - like mechanical system cal...
متن کاملDynamic behaviour of concrete containing aggregate resonant frequency
The need to design blast resistant civilian structures has arisen due to aggressor attacks on many civilian structures around the world. Achieving vibration and wave attenuation with locally resonant metamaterials has attracted a great deal of consideration due to their frequency dependent negative effective mass density. In this paper, metaconcrete, a new material with exceptional properties i...
متن کاملNonlinear Resonant Response of Deep Draft Platforms in Surface Waves
To minimize body motions, floating marine structures are often designed with natural frequencies far away from the spectrum of ocean waves. Such design considerations led to a class of deep draft caisson vessels (DDCV or spars). Even so, large resonant responses may still be generated by excitation from nonlinear interactions of waves with body motions. Past experiments indicated that a DDCV ex...

متن کاملSimulation of static sinusoidal wave in deep water environment with complex boundary conditions using proposed SPH method
The study of wave and its propagation on the water surface is among significant phenomena in designing quay, marine and water structures. Therefore, in order to design structures which are exposed to direct wave forces, it is necessary to study and simulate water surface height and the wave forces on the structures body in different boundary conditions. In this study, the propagation of static ...
