TL;DR: A Self Correcting Method (SCM) is applied to optimize the control signal of the wave maker in a Numerical Wave Tank (NWT) to generate a tsunami at a predefined position and the comparison of the results with the time series recorded in the Pago Pago harbour (Samoa) is very encouraging.

TL;DR: In this article, the results of a study carried out in the Large Wave Flume (Groser Wellenkanal, GWK), where waves of periods between 30 s and more than 100 s at 1 m water depth were successfully generated with a piston type wave maker.

TL;DR: In this paper, the motion of sloshing waves under random excitation in the sway and heave modes have been simulated in a numerical wave tank and the results showed that irrespective of peak excitation frequency, the peaks appear at the natural frequencies of the system and the peak magnitude appears close to the natural frequency for the sway excitation.

TL;DR: In this article, the evolution of focused waves using different paddle displacements (piston type) under laboratory conditions is presented, in which the wave paddle displacement is derived based on the sum of a number of sinusoidal components at discrete frequencies.

TL;DR: This paper will present first attempt to extend the Meshless Local Petrov Galerkin method with Rankine source solution (MLPG_R) for studying violent water waves and their interaction with rigid structures, and proposes a near-strongly coupled and partitioned procedure to deal with coupling between violent waves and dynamics of structures.
