On the Evolution of Different Types of Green Water Events

Green water events may present different features in the initial stage of interaction with deck a structure. It is therefore important to investigate evolution types green water, since not all interact at same time. In this paper, three (dam-break, plunging-dam-break, and hammer-fist) are studied. The surface elevations volumes over consecutive events, generated by incident [wave trains wave flume, were analyzed using image-based methods. results show multiple-valued early plunging-dam-break hammer-fist type events. Detailed experimental measurements shown for first effect steepness on duration maximum freeboard exceedance, also investigated. Although showed high exceedances, presented largest deck. Some challenges further assessments propagation reported.
