Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The oscillatory forces generated by the interaction of a train of gravity waves with a rigid horizontal circular cylinder located near a simulated ocean floor were determined experimentally. A circular cylinder of six inch diameter was subjected to gravity waves of wave lengths varying from 2 to 18 feet in a two-dimensional wave channel. Both the horizontal and vertical components of the hydrodynamic force were measured. Experimental results are plotted in dimensionless form. The horizontal and vertical dimensionless force coefficients are plotted as a function of the relative water depth, the relative wave length, and the relative wave height. (Author).

This book was released on 1972 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The special case of horizontal wave forces on large vertical cylinders in deep water is considered. The typical application for such a case is the calculation of horizontal forces on column-stabilized floating ocean platforms. Existing literature discussing horizontal wave forces on cylinders does not generally agree on how to predict these forces. Since for large-diameter cylinders in deep water the maximum force is completely inertial, the problem of deriving a solution is considerably simplified. In this study, an expression for the maximum horizontal wave force on large-diameter circular cylinders mounted vertically in deep water has been analytically derived. Experimental model studies were also conducted and the resulting measured forces are compared to predicted forces. An example of how to predict horizontal wave forces using the methods of the report is given. (Author).

This book was released on 1981 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The interaction of waves and currents and their relationship to the forces on submerged pipelines was investigated at Texas A&M University. A model pipeline in a wave-current test facility is used to obtain experimental force values which are compared to values predicted by various theoretical methods of representing wave propagation in a current. The Morison equation is employed to evaluate the forces on the horizontal cylinder. The major input parameters required by this equation are the water particle kinematics of velocity and acceleration and the coefficients of drag and inertia. Each of these parameters is investigated individually in order to ensure that compensating errors in the force calculations are eliminated. The coefficient of drag is determined from the simultaneous measurements of the horizontal water particle kinematics and the fluid force on the cylinder. Several wave theories for waves propagating in still water are modified to include currents by various combinations of their respective horizontal velocity fields. These water particle kinematics are compared directly to experimentally determined values. The measured forces are compared to the forces obtained by the Morison equation with the coefficients determined in this study and the kinematics predicted by the modified wave theories. The data are also compared to previous results for the individual cases of waves or currents. These comparisons demonstrate the changes of the coefficients of drag for the combined wave and current conditions. The primary purpose of this paper is not to provide explicit prototype design criteria, but to provide the design engineer with an insight into the fluid force parameters of interacting waves and currents. The results are presented in a manner that demonstrates the apparent acceptability of superimposing the velocity fields of the wave and current to predict the total velocity field for the determination of the fluid force by the Morison equation.

Book excerpt: This book focuses on: (1) the physics of the fundamental dynamics of fluids and of semi-immersed Lagrangian solid bodies that are responding to wave-induced loads; (2) the scaling of dimensional equations and boundary value problems in order to determine a small dimensionless parameter ε that may be applied to linearize the equations and the boundary value problems so as to obtain a linear system; (3) the replacement of differential and integral calculus with algebraic equations that require only algebraic substitutions instead of differentiations and integrations; and (4) the importance of comparing numerical and analytical computations with data from laboratories and/or nature.
