Focused wave groups are traveling waves characterized by extremely-large transient wave
amplitudes and very short durations. These waves usually cause serious damage to …

Ice-breaking cones are commonly used in the design of marine structures in cold regions.
This study investigates the effects of higher-harmonic wave loads and wave runup on a 5 …

A general phase-based harmonic separation method for the hydrodynamic loading on a
fixed structure in water waves of moderate steepness is proposed. An existing method …

A liquid sloshing experimental rig driven by a wave-maker is designed and built to study
liquid sloshing problems in a rectangular liquid tank with perforated baffle. A series of …

The plunging wave impacts on a box-shape structure are investigated experimentally and
numerically, focusing on three typical scenarios with distinct features, ie the wave impact …

This paper considers wave loads on bottom mounted vertical cylinders in the regime
relevant to offshore wind turbine monopiles, examining the higher harmonics of the loading …

This paper presents a numerical investigation on the harmonic structure of hydrodynamic
forces on a fixed and simplified representative floating production, storage and offloading …

Floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) are at high risk being attacked by freak waves with
profiles of large crest or deep trough, which could damage the structures or weaken the …
