Abstract:In presence of complex-hydrodynamic interaction between water wave and moving structure, a reliable method that can analyse nonlinear phenomena is necessarily required. This paper presents numerical investigation of a moored floating breakwater using computational fluid dynamic (CFD) approach. The mathematical model is based on the extended Reynolds Average Navier-Stokes (RANS) solver for solid-porous obstacle. A high amplitude wave with several wave periods were deliberately considered in the simulation to al… Show more
