Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical investigation of tsunami-like wave hydrodynamic characteristics and its comparison with solitary wave
K. Qu,X.Y. Ren,Simon Kraatz +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented numerical simulation results based on a tsunami-like wave generated based on the observed tsunami wave profile measured in the Tohoku tsunami, which was numerically generated with an internal wave source method with a two-phase incompressible flow model with a volume of fluid (VOF) method to capture the free surface, and a finite volume scheme was used to solve all the governing equations.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-resolution survey of tidal energy towards power generation and influence of sea-level-rise: A case study at coast of New Jersey, USA
Hansong Tang,Hansong Tang,Simon Kraatz,K. Qu,Guoqian Chen,Guoqian Chen,N. Aboobaker,C.B. Jiang +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a detailed assessment of the marine hydrokinetic (MHK) energy in the Might-Atlantic-Bight (MAB) is presented, and a case study on the distribution and top sites of MHK energy within the MAB with emphasis on the New Jersey (NJ) coastlines.
Journal ArticleDOI
An overset grid method for integration of fully 3D fluid dynamics and geophysics fluid dynamics models to simulate multiphysics coastal ocean flows
Hansong Tang,K. Qu,X. G. Wu +2 more
TL;DR: This paper presents a hybrid modeling system for coastal ocean flows involved with distinct physical phenomena occurring at a vast range of spatial and temporal scales that consists of a fully three dimensional (3D) fluid dynamics model and a geophysical fluid dynamicsmodel, which couple with each other in two-way and march in time simultaneously.
Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical Investigation of Connection Forces of a Coastal Bridge Deck Impacted by Solitary Waves
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrodynamic Effects of Solitary Waves Impinging on a Bridge Deck with Air Vents
TL;DR: Air vents in bridge decks are considered one potential measure for mitigating risk of damage to coastal bridges caused by extreme storm surge because they may reduce hydrodynamic uplift and therefore reduce the risk of flooding.
