A method for deterministic reproduction of non-linear long-crested waves has been implemented. The model is used for non-linear reproduction of measured wave time series from a model test programme in a wave flume. Regular waves, irregular waves and focused waves have been reproduced with the model. Based on measured surface elevation time series at one location in the flume the elevation time series and the kinematics have been reproduced at another location using both linear theory and the second order model. The numerical results have been compared with measurements and it is found that the second order model is able to reproduce the correct shape of the waves as they propagate in the flume — even when the waves are highly non-linear.Copyright © 2002 by ASMEread more

An application of the Fast Fourier Transform to the short-term prediction of sea wave behaviour
TL;DR: In this paper, the appropriateness of the Fast Fourier Transform for decomposition and reconstruction of wave records taken at fixed locations and transposed to a different temporal and spatial point is examined.
Prediction of extreme wave loads in focused wave groups
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the volume of fluid (VoF) method to simulate the wave propagation from the wave generator to the boundary of the computational domain of the VoF method (close to the target location).
Mooring Response of a Floating Offshore Wind Turbine in Nonlinear Irregular Waves
TL;DR: In this article, the mooring loads obtained by a numerical model of a floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT) foundation, where the substructure is a three-legged Tension Leg Platform (TLP) and the influences of a flexible topside are considered.
