Abstract:Plunger-type wavemakers have been installed in many ocean laboratories around the world, yet there still lacks the wavemaker theory for cnoidal waves, mainly due to the complexity of the cnoidal wave theory and plunger geometry. In this paper, motion equations for a cylinder-shaped plunger generating cnoidal waves, along with constraints on wave parameters, are derived. Afterwards, the generation of cnoidal waves is simulated in a Smooth Particle Hydrodynamic (SPH) wave flume, the accuracy of which is pre-exam… Show more
