Can the water on deck influence the parametric roll of a FPSO? A numerical and experimental investigation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Parametric roll and water on deck are investigated numerically and experimentally for a FPSO ship in head-sea regular waves in the zone of the first fundamental resonance. On the numerical side, a weakly-nonlinear potential ... -
Influences of upstream extensions on flow around a curved cylinder
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)In simulations of flow around a concave curved cylinder, i.e. free-stream aligned with the plane of curvature and directed towards the inner face of the curvature, one cannot avoid interactions between the cylinder and the ... -
Oblique waves on a vertically sheared current are rotational
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)In the study of surface waves in the presence of a shear current, a useful and much studied model is that in which the shear flow has constant vorticity. Recently it was shown by Constantin (2011) that a flow of constant ... -
On a layer model for spilling breakers: a preliminary experimental analysis
(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 ... -
Performance of the NREL S826 airfoil at low to moderate Reynolds numbers — A reference experiment for CFD models
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Lift, drag and surface pressure measurements are performed on a wing section of the NREL S826 wind turbine airfoil at eight Reynolds numbers ranging from 0:5_105 to 6:0_105. Alongside with the measurements two types of ... -
The transition in settling velocity of surfactant-covered droplets from the Stokes to the Hadamard–Rybczynski solution
(Journal article, 2017)The exact solution for a small falling drop is a classical result by Hadamard and Rybczynski. But experiments show that small drops fall slower than predicted, giving closer agreement with Stokes’ result for a falling hard ... -
Transient wave resistance upon a real shear current
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)We study the waves and wave-making forces acting on ships travelling on currents which vary as a function of depth. Our concern is realism; we consider a real current profile from the Columbia River, and model ships with ... -
Vortex dynamics and flow patterns in a two-dimensional oscillatory lid-driven rectangular cavity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The vortex dynamics in a two-dimensional oscillatory lid-driven cavity with depth-to-width ratio 1:2 has been investigated, covering a wide range of Reynolds numbers and Stokes numbers where this flow is known to be in the ...
