In this paper a space-averaged Navier–Stokes approach was deployed to simulate the wave propagation over coastal structures. The developed model is based on the smoothed particle hydrodynamic (SPH) method which is a pure Lagrangian approach and can handle large deformations of the free surface with high accuracy. In this study, the large eddy simulation (LES) turbulent model was coupled with th...

with the rapid growth of indoor wireless communication systems, the need to accurately model radio wave propagation inside the building environments has increased. many site-specific methods have been proposed for modeling indoor radio channels. among these methods, the ray tracing algorithm and the finite-difference time domain (fdtd) method are the most popular ones. the ray tracing approach ...

In the present paper, discrete element method (DEM) is used to study wave propagation phenomenon in granular soils. The effect of factors such as coefficient of friction, frequency, normal stiffness and soil gradation on the wave velocity is studied. Using the wall motion based on the sinusoidal function is the method of loading used in this simulation, through which the pressure wave is transf...

Wave diffraction is a very important phenomenon in marine engineering and several models have been developed for its simulation. The new version of SWAN, a third generation spectral model, includes an approximation to wave diffraction. The approximation is based on the mild-slope equation for refraction and diffraction, omitting phase information. The objective this paper is to evaluate the per...

In this study, we have theoretically investigated the effect of electron stopper layer on internal temperature distribution of high performance vertical cavity surface-emitting laser emitting at 1305 nm. Simulation software PICS3D, which self-consistently combines the 3D simulation of carrier transport, self-heating, gain computation and wave-guiding, was used. Simulation results show that chan...

This paper presents a real-time water simulation framework with respect to wave propagation in flowing liquids. The presented method is based on the coupling of liquid flow simulation and simulation of surface waves. Physically, our system combines the solution of the Navier-Stokes Equations with the solution of the 2D Wave Equation. Numerically, we combine the concept of wave particles with a ...

in recent years reflectarray antennas have received considerable attention due to their unique capabilities. however, due to their large size, analyzing the performance of these antennas using traditional full wave finite-difference and finite-element techniques requires considerable computational resources. in this paper, we present an efficient method to accurately analyze these class of ante...

A considerable amount of energy is released in the form of shock wave from explosive charge detonation. Shock wave energy is responsible for the creation of crushing and fracture zone around the blast hole. The rest of the shock wave energy is transferred to rock mass as ground vibration. Ground vibration is conveyed to the adjacent structures by body and surface waves. Geological structures li...
