Influences of ice-water mixture on the vertical water-entry of a cylinder at a low velocity
The ice floating on water surfaces during winter significantly influences the water entry
process of a cylinder. Therefore, it is crucial to evaluate the influence mechanism of the ice …

Unsteady forces on spheres during free-surface water entry
TT Truscott, BP Epps, AH Techet - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2012 - cambridge.org
We present a study of the forces during free-surface water entry of spheres of varying
masses, diameters, and surface treatments. Previous studies have shown that the formation …
