Water waves in the time domain
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, the initial value problem for a structure floating on the surface of the sea is investigated under the assumptions of linear theory. Fourier transforms are used to connect the timeand frequency-domain representations of the coupled motion of the fluid and body. This allows the large-time asymptotics of the motion to be obtained from the singularity structure of the frequency-domain potential in the complex plane. Under certain initial conditions, the free motion of a body about a fixed, equilibrium position is shown not to exist for all time, and in this case the assumptions behind the linear theory are violated. For suitably moored structures, motion is found which is purely exponentially decaying in time and does not involve any oscillations. Dedicated to the memory of Ernie Tuck in appreciation of his life and work.

Calculation of the reflected waves against obstacles is a prominent step in designing coastal structures. In addition, a complex process occurs during wave collision with beaches or breakwaters. These processes cause wave characteristics to be (energy dissipation, reflected wave, etc.). The new wave characteristics are dependent on reflected wave height straightly which are not measureable. In ...

This paper describes various time-domain methods useful for analyzing the experimental data obtained from a circular cylinder force in terms of both wave and current for estimation of the drag and inertia coefficients applicable to the Morison’s equation. An additional approach, weighted least squares method is also introduced. A set of data obtained from experiments on heavily roughened circul...
متن کاملAn Algorithm for Modeling and Interpretation of Seismoelectric Data
Generally speaking, seismoelectric modeling is a prospecting method based on seismic and electromagnetic waves, in which waves generated by a seismic source at the boundary of the two environments generate a relative fluid-solid motion formed as a result of antagonism between the elastic properties of the environment with the saturated fluid. This research has as its objective, a study of the e...

This paper presents the preliminary results of an extensive parametric study on seismic response of two-dimensional semi-sine shaped hills to vertically propagating incident P- and SV-waves. Clear perspectives of the induced diffraction and amplification patterns are given by investigation of time-domain and frequency-domain responses. It is shown that site geometry, wave characteristics , and ...

This paper investigates the integrated riser/vessel system which is subjected to random waves. Riser pipelines are the main components of the oil and gas offshore platforms. Whereas Iran country has been located on the fringes of Caspian Sea deep water, therefore study and research in this area is increasingly essential. The fluctuation of floating production causes the severe response and grea...
متن کاملEstimation of Hydrodynamic Forces on the Cylinderical Smooth Piles to Random Waves and Currents
Most Codes such as API and BSI recommend Morison’s equation to estimate hydrodynamic forces on offshore structures. Significant differences exist among these Codes due to using different methods of analysis and estimation of force coefficients. In this paper, data from full scale tests have been used to evaluate random waves and uniform current actions on the smooth piles.
