This study experimentally investigates the kinematics of greenwater resulting from plunging
breaking wave impacts on a deck structure. Two im**ement scenarios, characterized by …

Wave impacts on an elevated solid deck due to transient focused wave groups are studied
numerically. Previously reported experiments with and without an I-beam grillage beneath …

Wave-in-deck loads due to 45° oblique transient focus wave groups are investigated using
model-scale experiments and computational fluid dynamics simulations with emphasis on …

The structural integrity of offshore platforms is affected by degradation issues such as
subsidence. Subsidence involves large settlement areas, and it is one of the phenomena …

In design storm sea states, wave-in-deck forces need to be analysed for fixed and floating
offshore platforms. Due to the complex physics of wave impact phenomena, numerical …

Experimental or numerical analysis of the response of ships and other floating structures
starts with correct environmental modelling. The capabilities of numerical tools are rapidly …

Extreme wave impacts can damage ships and pose a risk to those on board. An extreme
wave impact can be green water: a wave impact on a ship's deck or superstructure, or …

There is a growing interest in impact loads by extreme waves which can be found in DNV-
GL's new guideline OTG-14 for horizontal impact loads of column stabilized units. Up to now …

The kinematics under spilling and plunging breakers are investigated using both
experimental and numerical methods. In a modular laboratory flume, the breakers were …
