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 …

Wave power devices offer great prospects for the marine renewable energy sector. But in
comparison to wind energy, wave power is still in its infancy, mainly prototype-based, with …

This study presents an evaluation of the error induced by neglecting the effect of air
compressibility in modelling Oscillating Water Column (OWC) wave energy converters. A …

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 …

We present a multi-region coupling procedure based on the finite-volume method and apply
it to two-phase hydrodynamic free surface flow problems. The method combines the features …

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 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 …

Wave impacts on an Oscillating Wave Surge Converter are examined using experimental
and numerical methods. The mechanics of the impact event are identified experimentally …

This paper presents a novel compressible-incompressible multiphase projection-based
particle method for the prediction of water slamming pressures. The particle method …

Hydrodynamics of an anti-sloshing technique using floating foams in a rectangular liquid
tank is investigated. A series of experiments are conducted. An analytical potential-flow …
