Journal ArticleDOI
Nature and Magnitude of Wave Loadings at Seawave Slot-cone Generators
TL;DR: In this article, a number of design equations have been derived, which permit to estimate the magnitude of the wave pressures acting onto the outer face of the device, along with the respective rise times.

Experimental modeling of wave load on a pile-supported wharf with pile breakwater
Huang Jianjun,Guoping Chen +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a hybrid structure of a pile-supported wharf connecting with a pile breakwater is tested in a flume with a scale factor of 1:30, where both wave, scour and load characteristic of this structure are investigated.

The Use of CFD in the Analysis of Wave Loadings Acting on Seawave Slot-Cone Generators
TL;DR: The reliability of CFD in reproducing qualitative and quantitative features of loadings exerted by waves on Seawave Slot-cone Generators (SSG) has been investigated via 17 numerical experiments, conducted with the suite Flow 3D.
Journal ArticleDOI
The occurrence and effects of wave impacts
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the duration of maximum exposure, i.e., the length of time that a coastal structure is exposed to the most important wave induced damage mechanisms, is a function of the combined probability of (at least) water level (tidal + storm surge) and wave height / storm profile characteristics.

CFD experiments on a low crested sloping top caisson breakwater. Part 1. nature of loadings and global stability
TL;DR: In this article, random wave CFD experiments have been carried out to study the loading process on a sloping top caisson breakwater subject to significant overtopping, and the results suggest that since wave force under crest is reduced by the overpassing, wave pressures under trough become comparatively larger, leading the structure to fail seaward even in absence of violent impact events.
