A Mathematical Model for Analysis of Upright Perforated Wave Absorbers

author

Abstract:

On the basis of the continuity equation and the Bernoulli equation in the steady form, a differential equation is developed to evaluate the successive water levels within compartments of an upright perforated wave absorber. Then the initial and boundary conditions are introduced and the differential equation is solved as an initial value problem. Finally the reflection coefficient from the wave absorber is calculated by establishing a balance bet ween the rates of energy dissipated, the energy propagation and the energy reflected of the incident waves. The results of numerical model are verified by experimental tests with regular waves. A new non-dimensional parameter is introduced to characterise the hydraulic performance of the upright perforated wave absorber. It is shown that the rate of wave dissipation through the absorber decreases as this parameter increases.

Theoretical and Experimental Studies of Upright Perforated Wave Filters

Liu et al. (1987) proposed a theoretical solution for scattering of waves through a permeable dissipation region. On the basis of bulk dissipation of the incident wave energy, this method is extended to evaluate the reflection and transmission coefficients of waves through a wave filter composed of rows of perforated sheets aligned normally to the direction of wave propagation. The results of t...

Thermal Buckling and Thermal Induced free Vibration Analysis of Perforated Composite Plates: a Mathematical Model

This artcile is concerned with thermal buckling and thermal induced free vibration analyses of PCPs (perforated composite plates) with simply supported edges applying a mathematical model. The stiffness and density of PCP are defined locally using Heaviside distribution functions. The governing equations are derived based on CLPT. The present solution gives reasonable results in comparison with...

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

Stability Analysis of Mathematical Model of Virus Therapy for Cancer
