The impact of waves and bores generated by broken solitary waves on horizontal decks of coastal structures was studied by solving the Navier?Stokes equations. Solitary waves of different amplitudes were considered, and submerged ramps were used to bring ...

Tidal bores are a natural phenomenon with high flow velocity and destructive potential. A spur dike is a widely used river regulation and embankment protection structure that minimizes erosion, promotes deposition, and protects riverbanks. However, the s...

In this study, the problem of surface waves induced by water flow in a flow channel was investigated. The mathematical model based on the potential wave theory was established, and a new analytic solution to the corresponding initial and boundary value p...

Field surveys in recent tsunami events document the catastrophic effects of large waterborne debris on coastal infrastructure. Despite the availability of experimental studies, numerical studies investigating these effects are very limited due to the nee...

In response to the extensive damage of coastal bridges sustained in recent tsunamis, this paper describes an investigation into tsunami-induced effects on two common bridge types, an open-girder deck with cross-frames and one with solid diaphragms. To th...

In view of the widespread damage to coastal bridges during recent tsunamis (2004 Indian Ocean and 2011 in Japan) large-scale hydrodynamic experiments of tsunami wave impact on a bridge with open girders were conducted in the Large Wave Flume at Oregon St...

Residual stresses have been a major source of concern, as they are an inevitable consequence of manufacturing and fabrication processes. The magnitude of these stresses is often as high as, or at least, comparable to the yield strength of the material. I...

In this paper, a Reynolds-averaged Navier?Stokes (RANS) equations solver, interFoam of OpenFOAM®, is validated for wave interactions with a dike, including a promenade and vertical wall, on a shallow foreshore. Such a coastal defence system is comprised ...

Recent studies indicated that coastal green belts could not provide proper protection from extreme coastal flooding. Recent studies recommend employing a compound defense system of natural and artificial structures for extreme hazards. In this study, we ...

Following the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami, Japanese tsunami protection guidelines stipulate that coastal defences should ensure that settlements are shielded from the coastal inundation that would result from Level 1 tsunami events (with return pe...

The flexible bearing is the kernel component of the cam wave generator. In precision transmission applications such as miniature robot joints, flexible bearings are required to have a smaller mass, lower moment of inertia, and larger inner diameter. Base...

Conventional liquefied natural gas (LNG) cargo vessels are imposed with tank-fill limitations as precautions to prevent structural damage and stability-loss due to high-impact sloshing, enforcing cargo volume-fills to be lower than 10% or higher than 70%...

Large blocks and boulders of banded iron formations and massive hematite up to 40 × 27 × 6 m3 and in excess of 10,000 metric tonnes were detached from an outcrop of the Wilgie Mia Formation during the ca 2.20 Ga marine transgression at the base of the Pa...

Basing on the analysis of data on variations of deformations in the Earth?s crust, which were obtained with a laser strainmeter, we found that deformation anomalies (deformation jumps) occurred at the time of tsunami generation. Deformation jumps recorde...
