    • Extra Strain Rates in an unsteady spilling breaking wave 

      Lucarelli, Alessia; Lugni, Claudio; Falchi, Massimo; Felli, Mario; Brocchini, Maurizio (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      We analyze the extra strain rates that characterize a curved, thin mixing layer induced at an unsteady spilling breaker. We focus on the flow curvature, which induces some extra rates of strain that should be accounted for ...

    • Gas cavity-body interactions: Efficient numerical solution 

      Colicchio, Giuseppina; Greco, Marilena; Faltinsen, Odd Magnus; Brocchini, Maurizio (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)
      The paper investigates the interactions occurring between a gas cavity, the surrounding liquid and the nearby structures. In more detail, focus is in the characterization of the various dynamical phases (e.g. “acoustic ...

    • Hydroelastic behaviour of a structure exposed to an underwater explosion 

      Colicchio, Giuseppina; Greco, Marilena; Brocchini, Maurizio; Faltinsen, Odd Magnus (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)
      The hydroelastic interaction between an underwater explosion and an elastic plate is investigated num- erically through a domain-decomposition strategy. The three-dimensional features of the problem require a large ...

    • On a layer model for spilling breakers: a preliminary experimental analysis 

      Lucarelli, Alessia; Lugni, Claudio; Falchi, Massimo; Felli, Mario; Brocchini, Maurizio (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Accurate and reliable experimental data of a sloshing-induced, rapidly-evolving spilling breaker, are used to understand the specific physics of this phenomenon and to partially evaluate a simplified analytical model by ...
