Book The Effect of a Plane Boundary on Wave Induced Forces Acting on a Submerged Cylinder

Download or read book The Effect of a Plane Boundary on Wave Induced Forces Acting on a Submerged Cylinder written by Houston Keith Jones and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The in-line and transverse forces acting on cylinders of 1.0 inch to 2.5 inches diameter placed near a plane wall in a harmonically oscillating flow have been measured. The drag and inertia coefficients C sub d and C sub m for the in-line force and the lift coefficients C sub 1A and C sub 1T for the transverse forces away and toward the wall, respectively, have been determined as a function of the relative gap e/D between the wall and the cylinder and the period parameter V sub m T/D. The relative gap ranged from 0.0143 to unity and the period parameter from zero to 35. In the subcritical range where these experiments have been performed, the effect of the Reynolds number, which ranged from 4,000 to 30,000, was found to be secondary and certainly obscured by the excellent correlation provided by the period parameter. The frequency of the transverse force was found to range from one to five times the frequency of oscillation of the harmonic motion, but a dominant frequency of twice the oscillation frequency was seen over most of the values of V sub m T/D.

Book Wave Forces on Offshore Structures

Download or read book Wave Forces on Offshore Structures written by Turgut 'Sarp' Sarpkaya and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-02-26 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A thorough understanding of the interaction of waves and currents with offshore structures has now become a vital factor in the safe and economical design of various offshore technologies. There has been a significant increase in the research efforts to meet this need. Although considerable progress has been made in the offshore industry and in the understanding of the interaction of waves, currents, and wind with ocean structures, most of the available books concentrate only on practical applications without a grounding in the physics. This text integrates an understanding of the physics of ocean-structure interactions with numerous applications. This more complete understanding will allow the engineer and designer to solve problems heretofore not encountered, and to design new and innovative structures. The intent of this book is to serve the needs of future generations of engineers designing more sophisticated structures at ever increasing depths.

Book Hydrodynamics Around Cylindrical Structures  Revised Edition

Download or read book Hydrodynamics Around Cylindrical Structures Revised Edition written by Jorgen Fredsoe and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2006-09-20 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the subject of wave/current flow around a cylinder, the forces induced on the cylinder by the flow, and the vibration pattern of slender structures in a marine environment.The primary aim of the book is to describe the flow pattern and the resulting load which develops when waves or current meet a cylinder. Special attention is paid to circular cylinder. The development in the forces is related to the various flow patterns and is discussed in detail. Regular as well as irregular waves are considered, and special cases like wall proximities (pipelines) are also investigated.

Book Forces on a Transverse Circular Cylinder in a Steady Uniform Flow Near a Plane Boundary

Download or read book Forces on a Transverse Circular Cylinder in a Steady Uniform Flow Near a Plane Boundary written by Blaine Hafen and published by . This book was released on with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An experimental study was conducted to determine the hydrodynamic forces on smooth and roughened circular cylinders as influenced by a nearby plane boundary. The ambient flow was perpendicular to the cylinder and parallel to the boundary. Measurements were taken in a water channel and a wind tunnel to obtain the influence of the boundary on the Strouhal number, lift and drag forces, and wake configuration. Reynolds numbers in the wind tunnel varied from 2 X 104 to 8 X 104, and the Reynolds number in the water channel was fixed at 5800. The value of CD for a smooth cylinder was found to increase about 20% to 60% as the cylinder neared the boundary, but at the boundary CD was about 15% less than the value in the free stream. Calculated values of CD based on the Strouhal number measured in the water channel compared favorably with CD values determined in the wind tunnel. The lift force was always positive due to wake effects.

Book Hydrodynamics Around Cylindrical Structures

Download or read book Hydrodynamics Around Cylindrical Structures written by B. Mutlu Sumer and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1997 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1977, Contact and Conflicthas remained an important book, which has inspired numerous scholars to examine further the relationships between the Indians and the Europeans -- fur traders as well as settlers. For this edition, Robin Fisher has written a new introduction in which he surveys the literature since 1977 and comments on any new insights into these relationships. Fisher contends that the fur trade had originally brought minimal cultural change to the Indians. In 1858 it essentially came to an end, and with the beginning of white settlement, there was a fundamental change in the relationship between Indians and Europeans. What had been a reciprocal system between the two civilizations became a pattern of white dominance. He shows that while the Indians had been able to adjust gradually to the changes introduced by the traders in the contact period, they lost control of their culture under the impact of colonization.
