The trajectory of surface gravity waves in the potential flow regime is affected by the
gravitational acceleration, water density and sea bed depth. Although the gravitational …

We theoretically design and experimentally demonstrate an invisibility concentrator,
consisting of several truncated cylinders, for water waves based on a scattering cancellation …

Monochromatic waves incident on an array of structures give rise to nonlinear, time-constant
mean drift forces (MDFs). These forces depend on the array's spatial configuration; their …

The cloaking phenomenon in arrays of truncated surface-piercing cylinders under different
wave directions is investigated by numerical and experimental methods. Two arrangements …

Cloaking based on scattering cancellation is investigated for a surface-piercing truncated
cylinder surrounded by several annularly arranged small truncated cylinders in water waves …

Wave concentrators have significant value for ocean energy absorbers to reduce power
generation costs. Besides, the protection problem of the concentrator itself should also be …

The cloaking of offshore structures exposed to water waves can effectively protect them from
hydrodynamics. In this study, an anisotropic medium designed by applying the space …

To reduce wave drift forces acting on an array of truncated cylinders, the optimization of
