Slamming, the violent impact between a liquid and solid, has been known to be important for
a long time in the ship hydrodynamics community. More recently, applications ranging from …

This article presents an overview of breaking waves and liquid sloshing impact acting on
rigid walls and in liquid containers. The physics of breaking waves against rigid walls can be …

A fully nonlinear domain decomposed solver is proposed for efficient computations of wave
loads on surface piercing structures in the time domain. A fully nonlinear potential flow …

Flood events caused by the collapse of dams or river levees can have damaging
consequences on buildings and infrastructure located in prone areas. Accordingly, a careful …

The effects of scale and aeration on violent breaking wave impacts with trapped and
entrained air are investigated both analytically and numerically. By dimensional analysis we …

Extreme wave loads from breaking waves on a monopile foundation are computed within a
3D CFD model. The wave impacts are obtained by application of focused wave groups. For …

The present paper on wave-impact events in depressurized environments completes the
analysis of Part I by focusing on the dynamical features of the impacts and on the influence …

This paper describes numerical and laboratory investigations that have been carried out to
gain a better understanding of the physical processes involved in offshore breaking wave …

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 uses a novel approach to investigate the effect of wave-current interactions on
the wave loads on a vertical surface piercing cylinder in representative current and wave …
