An efficient domain decomposition strategy for wave loads on surface piercing circular cylinders
A fully nonlinear domain decomposed solver is proposed for efficient computations of wave loads on surface piercing
structures in the time domain. A fully nonlinear potential flow solver was combined with a fully nonlinear
NavierStokes/VOF solver via generalized coupling zones of arbitrary shape. Sensitivity tests of the extent of the inner
NavierStokes/VOF domain were carried out. Numerical computations of wave loads on surface piercing circular cylinders
at intermediate water depths are presented. Four different test cases of increasing complexity were considered; 1) weakly
nonlinear regular waves on a sloping bed, 2) phase-focused irregular waves on a flat bed, 3) irregular waves on a sloping
bed and 4) multidirectional irregular waves on a sloping bed. For all cases, the free surface elevation and the inline force
were successfully compared against experimental measurements.

A non-linear wave decomposition model for efficient wavestructure interaction. Part A: Formulation, validations and
analysis
This paper deals with the development of an enhanced model for solving wavewave and wavestructure interaction
problems. We describe the application of a non-linear splitting method originally suggested by Di Mascio et al. [1], to the
high-order finite difference model developed by Bingham et al. [2] and extended by Engsig-Karup et al. [3] and [4]. The
enhanced strategy is based on splitting all solution variables into incident and scattered fields, where the incident field is
assumed to be known and only the scattered field needs to be computed by the numerical model. Although this splitting
technique has been applied to both potential flow and NavierStokes solvers in the past, it has not been thoroughly
described and analyzed, nor has it been presented in widely read journals. Here we describe the method in detail and
carefully analyze its performance using several 2D linear and non-linear test cases. In particular, we consider the extreme
case of non-linear waves up to the point of breaking reflecting from a vertical wall; and conclude that no limitations are
imposed by adopting this splitting. The advantages of this strategy in terms of robustness, accuracy and efficiency are also
demonstrated by comparison with the more common strategy of solving the incident and scattered fields together.

Effects from fully nonlinear irregular wave forcing on the fatigue life of an offshore wind turbine and its monopile foundation
The effect from fully nonlinear irregular wave forcing on the fatigue life of the foundation and tower of an offshore wind
turbine is investigated through aeroelastic calculations. Five representative sea states with increasing significant wave
height are considered in a water depth of 40 m. The waves are both linear and fully nonlinear irregular 2D waves. The
wind turbine is the NREL 5-MW reference wind turbine. Fatigue analysis is performed in relation to analysis of the
sectional forces in the tower and monopile.
Impulsive excitation of the sectional force at the bottom of the tower is seen when the waves are large and nonlinear and
most notably for small wind speeds. In case of strong velocities and turbulent wind, the excitation is damped out. In the
monopile no excitation of the force is seen, but even for turbulent strong wind the wave affects the forces in the pile
significantly. The analysis indicates that the nonlinearity of the waves can change the fatigue damage level significantly in
particular when the wave and wind direction is misaligned.

Efficient computations of wave loads on offshore structures

The present thesis considers numerical computations of fully nonlinear wave impacts on bottom mounted surface piercing
circular cylinders at intermediate water depths. The aim of the thesis is to provide new knowledge regarding wave loads
on foundations for offshore wind turbines. Hence, the dimensions of the cylinders and the chosen wave parameters were
inspired by typical monopile foundations for offshore wind turbines.
The numerical computations are carried out using three numerical solvers. That is, the fully nonlinear Navier-Stokes/VOF
solver provided as a part of the open-source CFD-toolbox OpenFoam R, the fully nonlinear potential flow solver
OceanWave3D and finally a fully nonlinear domain decomposed solver, which was developed as part of this project. In the
domain decomposed solver, the outer wave field is described by the potential flow solver, whereas the inner wave field, in
the vicinity of a given structure, is described by the Navier-Stokes/VOF solver.
All numerical models are carefully validated either in terms of convergence by grid refinement or by comparisons to
experimental measurements. Special attention is paid to the newly developed domain decomposed solver, which is
carefully validated against experimental measurements of regular-, irregular- and multi-directional irregular waves. The
ability of the numerical model to accurately reproduce experiments is also investigated.
Wave impacts on a bottom mounted circular cylinder from steep regular waves are presented. Here, the inline forces and
the motion of the free surface is described as a function of the non-dimensional wave steepness, the relative water depth,
the relative cylinder diameter and a co-existing current. From the computations, higher harmonic forces are determined
and compared against the Morison equation and established analytical force formulations accurate to the third order in
wave steepness.
The physics related to the strongly nonlinear load phenomena secondary load cycles is described and an explanation of
the wave load phenomena is provided. To further support the explanation a simple inviscid kinematic model flow is
derived.
The discussion of wave impacts on circular cylinders is further extended to uni- and bi-directional phase-focused waves.
Here, the influence of the nondimensional wave steepness and wave directionality is discussed. For the steepest wave
impacts secondary load cycles are observed and the physics of the impact and the mechanisms related to the
secondary load cycle are discussed and compared to the observations made for regular waves.
Additionally, attention is paid to experimental determination of hydrodynamic forces. Significant differences between
experimentally measured and computed higher harmonic forces are observed and the differences are explained in terms
of the eigenmotion of the test setup. Finally, the application of the domain decomposed solver is discussed in an
engineering context. Here, a simple and robust way of identifying forces, which may be inaccuvii rately estimated by the
Morison equation, is presented. It is suggested that these impacts are recomputed by the domain decomposed solver.

Efficient Hybrid-Spectral Model for Fully Nonlinear Numerical Wave Tank

A new hybrid-spectral solution strategy is proposed for the simulation of the fully nonlinear free surface equations based
on potential flow theory. A Fourier collocation method is adopted horisontally for the discretization of the free surface
equations. This is combined with a modal Chebyshev Tau method in the vertical for the discretization of the Laplace
equation in the fluid domain, which yields a sparse and spectrally accurate Dirichletto-Neumann operator. The Laplace
problem is solved with an efficient Defect Correction method preconditioned with a spectral discretization of the linearised
wave problem, ensuring fast convergence and optimal scaling with the problem size. Preliminary results for very nonlinear
waves show expected convergence rates and a clear advantage of using spectral schemes.

Multiscale Simulation of Breaking Wave Impacts

The purpose of this project is to make an accurate, robust, geometric flexible and efficient model for calculation of forces
on structures from nonlinear ocean waves and breaking wave impacts. Accurate prediction of the extreme forces on wind
turbine foundations, breakwaters and tidal or wave power devises are important for enhancement structural designs.
The proposed model is based on an incompressible and inviscid flow approximation and the governing equations are
applied in an arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian moving frame of reference (ALE). The Runge-Kutta method (RK) is used for
time integration and mass conservation is satisfied through a pressure-corrector type calculation of the pressure. The
weighted least squares method (WLS) is combined with approximate Riemann solvers to introduce numerical smoothing
of the solution around steep gradients in the velocity and pressure fields. The Poisson equation is solved and the pressure
boundary conditions are satisfied by a generalized finite pointset method (GFPM); This provides a geometrically flexible
and stable solution for the fluid pressure. The numerical approximations of these equations are performed on unstructured
point distributions and the solutions for velocity and pressure are represented by WLS approximation of multivariate
polynomials. The stencils for the ALE-WLS and GFPM methods are found through a breadth first search (BFS) in a
modified Delaunay graph. This graph is the discrete representation of the fluid domain and the connectivity between the
calculation points. The graph is updated according to the evolving topology of the fluid domain caused by the fluid
reaching or leaving a solid boundary or the free surface colliding with itself or another free-surface. After each time step
the fluid domain is checked for any of these intersections and the topology is updated accordingly in its graph
representation. The calculation points move in a Lagrangian way and this can cause ill-conditioning of the generalized
Vandermonde matrix in the WLS and GFPM methods. To prevent this the point set is refined and coarsened by a filldistance based adaptivity method and redistributed via a point position filtering method. The incompressible and inviscid
ALE-WLS model is applied to the following standard validation test cases: deforming elliptical drop, small amplitude
standing waves and the dam break problem. The deforming elliptical drop test show that the model can calculate the
kinematics and dynamics of this free surface flow accurately and robustly. The small amplitude standing wave gives the
same conclusions. Long time integration of this small amplitude periodic motion is possible due to accurate free surface
evolution and small errors in the fluid volume. The dam break test case shows that the incompressible and inviscid ALEWLS model can calculate nonlinear fluid motion, fluid structure impacts and overturning waves. The propagation speed of
the wetting front and impact pressures are compared to experiments and the results compare reasonably well. The
incompressible and inviscid ALE-WLS model is coupled with the potential flow model of Engsig-Karup et al. [2009], to
perform multiscale calculation of breaking wave impacts on a vertical breakwater. The potential flow model provides
accurate calculation of the wave transformation from offshore to the vicinity of the breakwater. The wave breaking close to
the breakwater and the wave impact are calculated by the incompressible ALE-WLS model. The forces calculated with the
incompressible and inviscid ALE-WLS model are 1 - 2 times the corresponding compressible calculations in Bredmose et
al. [2009] for the calculations without trapped air.
Among the contributions of this project are the ALE-WLS method combined with approximate Riemann solvers and the
generalization of the FPM method to arbitrary order of accuracy. The WLS and GFPM stencils found using the BFS data
structure, which is updated due to topology changes of the evolving fluid domain. This extension combined with ALE-WLS
and approximate Riemann solvers gives a numerical model capable of calculation of forces due to breaking wave impacts.
The incompressible and inviscid ALE-WLS model has been coupled with a potential flow model to provide multiscale
calculation of forces from breaking wave impacts on structures.

Real-Time Simulation of Ship-Structure and Ship-Ship Interaction

This paper gives the status of the development of a ship-hydrodynamic model for real-time ship-wave calculation and shipstructure and ship-ship interaction in a full mission marine simulator. The hydrodynamic model is based on potential flow
theory, linear or non-linear free surface boundary condition and higher-order accurate numerical approximations. The
equations presented facilitate both Neumann-Kelvin and double-body linearizations. The body boundary condition on the
ship hull is approximated by a static and dynamic moving pressure distribution. The pressure distribution method is used,
because it is simple, easy to implement and computationally efficient. Multiple many-core graphical processing units
(GPUs) are used for parallel execution and the model is implemented using a combination of C/C++, CUDA and MPI. Two
ship hydrodynamic cases are presented: Kriso Container Carrier at steady forward speed and lock entrance of a TEU
12.000 Container Carrier. These calculations reveal that the pressure distribution model is a too simple approximation of
the body boundary condition and that it has the limitations of a flat-ship approximation. It is necessary to investigate more
accurate approximations of the body boundary condition, which does not compromise the overall computational efficiency.

Second-order theory for coupling 2D numerical and physical wave tanks: Derivation, evaluation and experimental
validation
A full second-order theory for coupling numerical and physical wave tanks is presented. The ad hoc unified wave
generation approach developed by Zhang et al. [Zhang, H., Schffer, H.A., Jakobsen, K.P., 2007. Deterministic
combination of numerical and physical coastal wave models. Coast. Eng. 54, 171186] is extended to include the secondorder dispersive correction. The new formulation is presented in a unified form that includes both progressive and
evanescent modes and covers wavemaker configurations of the piston- and flap-type. The second order paddle stroke
correction allows for improved nonlinear wave generation in the physical wave tank based on target numerical solutions.
The performance and efficiency of the new model is first evaluated theoretically based on second order Stokes waves.
Due to the complexity of the problem, the proposed method has been truncated at 2D and the treatment of regular waves,
and the re-reflection control on the wave paddle is also not included. In order to validate the solution methodology further,
a series of nonlinear, periodic waves based on stream function theory are generated in a physical wave tank using a
piston-type wavemaker. These experiments show that the new second-order coupling theory provides an improvement in
the quality of nonlinear wave generation when compared to existing techniques.

Steep wave loads from irregular waves on an offshore wind turbine foundation: Computation and experiment
Two-dimensional irregular waves on a sloping bed and their impact on a bottom mounted circular cylinder is modeled by
three different numerical methods and the results are validated against laboratory experiments. We here consider the
performance of a linear-, a fully nonlinear potential flow solver and a fully nonlinear Navier-Stokes/VOF solver. The
validation is carried out in terms of both the free surface elevation and the inline force. Special attention is paid to the
ultimate load in case of a single wave event and the general ability of the numerical models to capture the higher harmonic
forcing. The test case is representative for monopile foundations at intermediate water depths. The potential flow
computations are carried out in a two-dimensional vertical plane and the inline force on the cylinder is evaluated by the
Morison equation. The Navier-Stokes/VOF computations are carried out in three-dimensions and the force is obtained by
spatial pressure integration over the wettet area of the cylinder. In terms of both the free surface elevation and inline force,
the linear potential flow model is shown to be of limited accuracy and large deviations are generally seen when compared
to the experimental measurements. The fully nonlinear Navier-Stokes/VOF computations are accurately predicting both
the free surface elevation and the inline force. However, the computational cost is high relative to the potential flow
solvers. Despite the fact that the nonlinear potential flow model is carried out in two-dimensions it is shown to perform just
as good as the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes/VOF solver. This is observed for both the free surface elevation and the
inline force, where both the ultimate load and the higher harmonic forces are accurately predicted. This shows that for
moderately steep irregular waves a Morison equation combined with a fully nonlinear two-dimensional potential flow solver
can be a good approximation.

The second-order decomposition model of nonlinear irregular waves

A new method to decompose the nonlinear irregular waves is proposed. The second-order potential flow theory is
employed to construct the relation of the second-order items solution by deriving the transfer function between the firstand the second-order components. Target waves are decomposed into the first- and the second-order super-harmonic as
well as the second-order sub-harmonic components by transferring them into an identical Fourier frequency-space and
using a Newton-Raphson iteration method. In order to evaluate the present model, a variety of monochromatic waves and
the second-order nonlinear irregular waves over a broad range of frequencies have been analyzed, and the effects on
wave nonlinearity are analyzed. The experimental results show that the present method is reasonably effective for the
wave decomposition.

Accurate computation of wave loads on a bottom fixed circular cylinder

This abstract describes recent progress in the development of a fast and accurate tool for computations of wave-structure
interactions of realistic sea states that include breaking waves.
The practical motivation is extreme wave loads on offshore wind turbine foundations, but the tool is applicable to a range
of other problems.
The central idea is to drive an inner CFD model that resolves the flow around the structure with an outer wave model that
is based on potential flow theory. By letting the potential flow solver describe the waves in the outer flow domain and the
Navier-Stokes solver describe the flow in the inner domain a fast and accurate description of wave loads on offshore
structures is obtained, even for breaking waves.
Engsig-Karup et. al [1] have recently developed a fully nonlinear potential flow solver (OceanWave3D) to represent
propagation and development of fully nonlinear three-dimensional water waves up to the point of breaking.
The CFD solver is the open source CFD toolbox OpenFOAMR in combination with the newly developed waves2Foam
utility, which in [5] has been successfully applied to calculations of free surface flows. The numerical solution is obtained
by solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in combination with a surface tracking scheme. The CFD solver
has been thoroughly tested for stability and first order grid convergence has been shown for the propagation of stream
function waves.
Here we present results for the magnitudes, of the third-harmonic forces on a vertical circular cylinder from steep waves.
This partly serves as a validation and further brings insight into third-harmonic wave loads on cylinders which are relevant
for ringing. Next, preliminary results for the coupled model are presented in terms of irregular waves propagation and the
associated forces on a cylinder.

A comparative study of two fast nonlinear free-surface water wave models

This paper presents a comparison in terms of accuracy and efficiency between two fully nonlinear potential flow solvers for
the solution of gravity wave propagation. One model is based on the high-order spectral (HOS) method, whereas the
second model is the high-order finite difference model OceanWave3D. Although both models solve the nonlinear potential
flow problem, they make use of two different approaches. The HOS model uses a modal expansion in the vertical direction
to collapse the numerical solution to the two-dimensional horizontal plane. On the other hand, the finite difference model
simply directly solves the three-dimensional problem. Both models have been well validated on standard test cases and
shown to exhibit attractive convergence properties and an optimal scaling of the computational effort with increasing
problem size. These two models are compared for solution of a typical problem: propagation of highly nonlinear periodic
waves on a finite constant-depth domain. The HOS model is found to be more efficient than OceanWave3D with a
difference dependent on the level of accuracy needed as well as the wave steepness. Also, the higher the order of the
finite difference schemes used in OceanWave3D, the closer the results come to the HOS model.

A Coupled Finite Difference and Moving Least Squares Simulation of Violent Breaking Wave Impact
Two model for simulation of free surface flow is presented. The first model is a finite difference based potential flow model
with non-linear kinematic and dynamic free surface boundary conditions. The second model is a weighted least squares
based incompressible and inviscid flow model. A special feature of this model is a generalized finite point set method
which is applied to the solution of the Poisson equation on an unstructured point distribution. The presented finite point set
method is generalized to arbitrary order of approximation. The two models are applied to simulation of steep and
overturning wave impacts on a vertical breakwater. Wave groups with five different wave heights are propagated from
offshore to the vicinity of the breakwater, where the waves are steep, but still smooth and non-overturning. These waves
are used as initial condition for the weighted least squares based incompressible and inviscid model and the wave impacts
on the vertical breakwater are simulated in this model. The resulting maximum pressures and forces on the breakwater
are relatively high when compared with other studies and this is due to the incompressible nature of the present model.

An overset grid approach to linear wave-structure interaction

A finite-difference based approach to wave-structure interaction is reported that employs the overset approach to grid
generation. A two-dimensional code that utilizes the Overture C++ library has been developed to solve the linear radiation
problem for a floating body of arbitrary form. This software implementation has been validated by performing time-domain
simulations to evaluate the dynamic forces applied to a half-submerged cylinder and a rectangular barge in response to a
prescribed motion. A Gaussian displacement is used to introduce a range of wave frequencies, thereby allowing the
measurement of the body response over the frequency range of interest. The radiation addedmass and damping
coefficients of both bodies have been evaluated
and compared to exact analytical solutions. The numerical and analytical results show good agreement when the modes
of excitation and response are the same. The cross-coupled results are in qualitative agreement, but show some
quantitative variations that may be related to slight differences in the fluid domain geometry. For both the cylinder and the
barge, the effects of bottom slope on the coefficients are found to be minimal.

High-order Finite Difference Solution of Euler Equations for Nonlinear Water Waves
The incompressible Euler equations are solved with a free surface, the position of which is captured by applying an
Eulerian kinematic boundary condition. The solution strategy follows that of [1, 2], applying a coordinate-transformation to
obtain a time-constant spatial computational domain which is discretized using arbitrary-order finite difference schemes on
a staggered grid with one optional stretching in each coordinate direction. The momentum equations and kinematic free
surface condition are integrated in time using the classic fourth-order Runge-Kutta scheme. Mass conservation is satisfied
implicitly, at the end of each time stage, by constructing the pressure from a discrete Poisson equation, derived from the
discrete continuity and momentum equations and taking the time-dependent physical domain into account. An efficient
preconditionedDefect Correction (DC) solution of the discrete Poisson equation for the pressure is presented, in which the
preconditioning step is based on an order-multigrid formulation with a direct solution on the lowest order-level. This
ensures fast convergence of the DC method with a computational effort which scales linearly with the problem size.
Results obtained with a two-dimensional implementation of the model are compared with highly accurate stream function
solutions to the nonlinear wave problem, which show the approximately expected convergence rates and a clear
advantage of using high-order finite difference schemes in combination with the Euler equations.

Solving the linear radiation problem using a volume method on an overset grid
This paper describes recent progress towards the development of a computational tool, based on potential
ow theory, that can accurately and effciently simulate wave-induced loadings on marine structures. Engsig-Karup et al.
(2009) have successfully developed an arbitrary-order, finite-differencebased, potentialow model to represent the
propagation of fully non-linear waves in coastal regions of varying bathymetry. The present objective is to develop this
methodology to include the presence of a oating structure. To represent the curvilinear boundaries of the structure and the
bottom, the single-block methodology developed previously is applied to multiple, overlapping grid blocks using
the overset approach. While the ultimate aim of this work is to model fully non-linear wave-structure interaction, a linear
solver has been initially implemented to permit the use of a fixed grid, and to allow comparison of numerical results with
established analytical solutions.
The linear radiation problem is considered in this paper. A two-dimensional computational tool has been developed to
calculate the force applied to a floating body of arbitrary form in response to a prescribed displacement. Fourier transforms
of the time-dependent displacement and force are applied, and the ratio of the resulting signals used to determine the
radiation added mass and damping of the body as a function of frequency. The present software implementation has been
validated by comparing numerical results from the linear model with analytical solutions for several test cases. The
dynamic behaviour of a cylinder and barge on variable bathymetry has been investigated on
a multi-block grid in two dimensions. Simulations have been performed to evaluate the induced flow field and radiation
forces generated by these bodies in response to a Gaussian displacement. The hydrodynamic coecients associated with
body motions in surge, heave, and pitch have been calculated and compared with exact solutions. A three-dimensional
implementation of the linear model has recently been completed.

Towards Real Time Simulation of Ship-Ship Interaction

We present recent and preliminary work directed towards the development of a simplified, physics-based model for
improved simulation of ship-ship interaction that can be used for both analysis and real-time computing (i.e. with real-time
constraints due to visualization). The goal is to implement the model into a large maritime simulator for training of naval
officers, in particular tug boat helmsmen. Tug boat simulators are used for training of communication and situation
awareness during manoeuvre involved with towing of large vessels. A main objective of the work is to improve and enable
more accurate (realistic) and much faster ship-wave and ship-ship simulations than are currently possible. The coupling of
simulation with visualization should improve the visual experience such that it can be perceived as more realistic in
training. Today
the state-of-art in real-time ship-ship interaction is for efficiency reasons and time-constraints in visualization based on
model experiments in towing tanks and precomputed force tables. We anticipate that the fast, and highly parallel,
algorithm described by Engsig-Karup et al. [2011] for execution on affordable modern high-throughput Graphics
Processing Units (GPUs) can provide
the basis for efficient simulations in combination with an accurate free-surface model for Ship-Ship simulation. Another
area of application is the determination of wave disturbances from a ship in a coastal environment, channels and
harbours. The model proposed in the following can in a simple and efficient way calculate the wave field from a ship
sailing in a finite depth sea, even with variations in the height of sea bed. The generated wave field can be applied as an
input to other models that simulate the marine environment on a larger scale.

A coupled boundary element-finite difference solution of the elliptic modified mild slope equation
The modified mild slope equation of [5] is solved using a combination of the boundary element method (BEM) and the
finite difference method (FDM). The exterior domain of constant depth and infinite horizontal extent is solved by a BEM
using linear or quadratic elements. The interior domain with variable depth is solved by a flexible order of accuracy FDM in
boundary-fitted curvilinear coordinates. The two solutions are matched along the common boundary of two methods (the
BEM boundary) to ensure continuity of value and normal flux. Convergence of the individual methods is shown and the
combined solution is tested against several test cases. Results for refraction and diffraction of waves from submerged
bottom mounted obstacles compare well with experimental measurements and other computed results from the literature.

Irregular Wave Forces on Monopile Foundations. Effect af Full Nonlinearity and Bed Slope
Forces on a monopile from a nonlinear irregular unidirectional wave model are investigated. Two seabed profiles of
different slopes are considered. Morisons equation is used to investigate the forcing from fully nonlinear irregular waves
and to compare the results with those obtained from linear wave theory and with stream function wave theory. The latter of
these theories is only valid on a flat bed. The three predictions of wave forces are compared and the influence of the bed
slope is investigated. Force-profiles of two selected waves from the irregular wave train are further compared with the
corresponding forceprofiles from stream function theory. The results suggest that the nonlinear irregular waves give rise to
larger extreme wave forces than those predicted by linear theory and that a steeper bed slope increases the wave forces
both for linear and nonlinear waves. It is further found that stream function theory in some cases underestimate the wave
forces acting on the monopile.

Experimental and numerical study of the wave run-up along a vertical plate
Results from experiments on wave interaction with a rigid vertical plate are reported. The 5m long plate is set against the
wall of a 30m wide basin, at 100m from the wavemaker. This set-up is equivalent to a 10m plate in the middle of a 60m
wide basin. Regular waves are produced, with wavelengths of 1.6m, 1.8m and 2m, and steepnesses H/L (H being the
double amplitude and L being the wavelength) ranging from 2% to 5%. Free-surface elevations along the plate are
measured with a row of 20 gauges. The focus is on the time evolution of the free-surface profile along the plate. At all
steepnesses, strong deviations from the predictions of linear theory gradually take place as the reflected wave field
develops in the basin. This phenomenon is attributed to third-order interactions between the incoming and reflected wave
systems, on the weather side of the plate. The measured profiles along the plate are compared with the predictions of two
numerical models: an approximate model based on the tertiary interaction theory of Longuet-Higgins & Phillips (J. Fluid
Mech., vol. 12, 1962, p. 333) for plane waves, which provides a steady-state solution, and a fully nonlinear numerical
wavetank based on extended Boussinesq equations. In most of the experimental tests, despite the large distance from the
wavemaker to the plate and the small amplitude of the incident wave, no steady state is attained by the end of the
exploitable part of the records.

High-order finite difference solution for 3D nonlinear wave-structure interaction

This contribution presents our recent progress on developing an efficient fully-nonlinear potential flow model for simulating
3D wave-wave and wave-structure interaction over arbitrary depths (i.e. in coastal and offshore environment). The model
is based on a high-order finite difference scheme OceanWave3D presented in [1, 2]. A nonlinear decomposition of the
solution into incident and scattered fields is used to increase the efficiency of the wave-structure interaction problem
resolution. Application of the method to the diffraction of nonlinear waves around a fixed, bottom mounted circular cylinder
are presented and compared to the fully nonlinear potential code XWAVE as well as to experiments.

An efficient flexible-order model for 3D nonlinear water waves

The flexible-order, finite difference based fully nonlinear potential flow model described in [H.B. Bingham, H. Zhang, On
the accuracy of finite difference solutions for nonlinear water waves, J. Eng. Math. 58 (2007) 211-228] is extended to three
dimensions (3D). In order to obtain an optimal scaling of the solution effort multigrid is employed to precondition a GMRES
iterative solution of the discretized Laplace problem. A robust multigrid method based on Gauss-Seidel smoothing is found
to require special treatment of the boundary conditions along solid boundaries, and in particular on the sea bottom. A new
discretization scheme using one layer of grid points outside the fluid domain is presented and shown to provide
convergent solutions over the full physical and discrete parameter space of interest. Linear analysis of the fundamental
properties of the scheme with respect to accuracy, robustness and energy conservation are presented together with
demonstrations of grid independent iteration count and optimal scaling of the solution effort. Calculations are made for 3D
nonlinear wave problems for steep nonlinear waves and a shoaling problem which show good agreement with
experimental measurements and other calculations from the literature.

Toward a scalable flexible-order model for 3D nonlinear water waves

For marine and coastal applications, current work are directed toward the development of a scalable numerical 3D model
for fully nonlinear potential water waves over arbitrary depths. The model is high-order accurate, robust and efficient for
large-scale problems, and support will be included for flexibility in the description of structures by the use of curvilinear
boundary-fitted meshes. The mathematical equations for potential waves in the physical domain is transformed through
$\sigma$-mapping(s) to a time-invariant boundary-fitted domain which then becomes a basis for an efficient solution
strategy on a time-invariant mesh. The 3D numerical model is based on a finite difference method as in the original works
\cite{LiFleming1997,BinghamZhang2007}. Full details and other aspects of an improved 3D solution can be found in
\cite{EBL08}. The new and improved approach for three-dimensional problems employs a GMRES solver with multigrid
preconditioning to achieve optimal scaling of the overall solution effort, i.e., directly with $n$ the total number of grid
points. Grid independent iteration count and optimal scaling has been demonstrated to be independent of the mesh and
the physics. A robust method is achieved through a special treatment of the boundary conditions along solid boundaries
using a fictitious a ghost point technique, and is necessary for a robust multigrid preconditioning strategy. The solution
strategy is found to be both robust for general nonlinear wave problems, with no need for additional smoothing or filtering
over that imposed naturally by the finite difference scheme. By the adjusting the numerical discretization parameters, the
accuracy in dispersion and flow kinematics (accuracy) together with the solution effort (efficiency) can be optimized for the
model to be nearly competitive with dedicated models based on simplified equations, e.g. Boussinesq-type equations. At
the symposium, we will present examples demonstrating the fundamental properties of the numerical model
(OceanWave3D) together with the latests achievements.

Velocity potential formulations of highly accurate Boussinesq-type models

The highly accurate Boussinesq-type equations of Madsen et al. (Madsen, P.A., Bingham, H.B., Schaffer, H.A., 2003.
Boussinesq-type formulations for fully nonlinear and extremely dispersive water waves: Derivation and analysis. Proc. R.
Soc. Lond. A 459, 1075-1104; Madsen, P.A., Fuhrman, D.R., Wang, B., 2006. A Boussinesq-type method for fully
nonlinear waves interacting with a rapidly varying bathymetry. Coast. Eng. 53, 487-504); Jamois et al. (Jamois, E.,
Fuhrman, D.R., Bingham, H.B., Molin, B., 2006. Wave-structure interactions and nonlinear wave processes on the
weather side of reflective structures. Coast. Eng. 53, 929-945) are re-derived in a more general framework which
establishes the correct relationship between the model in a velocity formulation and a velocity potential formulation.
Although most work with this model has used the velocity formulation, the potential formulation is of interest because it
reduces the computational effort by approximately a factor of two and facilitates a coupling to other potential flow solvers.
A new shoaling enhancement operator is introduced to derive new models (in both formulations) with a velocity profile
which is always consistent with the kinematic bottom boundary condition. The true behaviour of the velocity potential
formulation with respect to linear shoaling is given for the first time, correcting errors made by Jamois et al. (Jamois, E.,
Fuhrman, D.R., Bingham, H.B., Molin, B., 2006. Wave-structure interactions and nonlinear wave processes on the
weather side of reflective structures. Coast. Eng. 53, 929-945). An exact infinite series solution for the potential is obtained
via a Taylor expansion about an arbitrary vertical position z=(z) over cap. For practical implementation however, the
solution is expanded based on a slow variation of (z) over cap and terms are retained to first-order. With shoaling
enhancement, the new models obtain a comparable accuracy in linear shoaling to the original velocity formulation.
General consistency relations are also derived which are convenient for verifying that the differential operators satisfy a
potential flow and/or conserve mass up to the order of truncation of the model. The performance of the new formulation is
validated using computations of linear and nonlinear shoaling problems. The behaviour on a rapidly varying bathymetry is
also checked using linear wave reflection from a shelf and Bragg scattering from an undulating bottom. Although the new
models perform equally well for Bragg scattering they fail earlier than the existing model for reflection/transmission
problems in very deep water.

DG-FEM solution for nonlinear wave-structure interaction using Boussinesq-type equations

We present a high-order nodal Discontinuous Galerkin Finite Element Method (DG-FEM) solution based on a set of highly

used for the spatial discretization to solve the Boussinesq equations in complex and curvilinear geometries which amends
the application range of previous numerical models that have been based on structured Cartesian grids. The Boussinesq
method provides the basis for the accurate description of fully nonlinear and dispersive water waves in both shallow and
deep waters within the breaking limit. To demonstrate the current applicability of the model both linear and mildly nonlinear
test cases are considered in two horizontal dimensions where the water waves interact with bottom-mounted fully
reflecting structures. It is established that, by simple symmetry considerations combined with a mirror principle, it is
possible to impose weak slip boundary conditions for both structured and general curvilinear wall boundaries while
maintaining the accuracy of the scheme. As is standard for current high-order Boussinesq-type models, arbitrary waves
can be generated and absorbed in the interior of the computational domain using a flexible relaxation technique applied on
the free surface variables.

An efficient flexible-order model for coastal and ocean water waves

Current work are directed toward the development of an improved numerical 3D model for fully nonlinear potential water
waves over arbitrary depths. The model is high-order accurate, robust and efficient for large-scale problems, and support
will be included for flexibility in the description of structures. The mathemathical equations for potential waves in the
physical domain is transformed through $\sigma$-mapping(s) to a time-invariant boundary-fitted domain which then
becomes a basis for an efficient solution strategy. The improved 3D numerical model is based on a finite difference
method as in the original works \cite{LiFleming1997,BinghamZhang2007}. The new and improved approach employs a
GMRES solver with multigrid preconditioning to achieve optimal scaling of the overall solution effort, i.e., directly with $n$
the total number of grid points. A robust method is achieved through a special treatment of the boundary conditions along
solid boundaries, and is necessary for a robust multigrid preconditioning strategy. Full details and other aspects of the 3D
solution will appear in \cite{EngsigKarupBinghamLindberg2008}. At the symposium, we will present examples
demonstrating the fundamental properties of the numerical model together with the latests achievements.

Unstructured nodal DG-FEM solution of high-order Boussinesq-type equations

The main objective of the present study has been to develop a numerical model and investigate solution techniques for
solving the recently derived high-order Boussinesq equations of \cite{MBL02} in irregular domains in one and two
horizontal dimensions. The Boussinesq-type methods are the simplest alternative to solving full three-dimensional wave
problems by e.g. Navier-Stokes equations, which can capture all the important wave phenomena such as diffraction,
refraction, nonlinear wave-wave interactions and interaction with structures.
The main goal can be reached by using multi-domain methods with support for a spatial discretization based on
unstructured grids. In the current work, a standard method of lines approach has been adapted, and the method of choice
for the spatial discretization is the nodal Discontinuous Galerkin Finite element method (DG-FEM), which provides a highly
flexible basis for the model. This method is combined with an explicit Runge-Kutta method for the temporal discretization.
The resulting discrete set of equations enables us to simulate water waves accurately in complex geometric settings and
possibly employ local adaption techniques to optimize the computational effort.
%As of today, the high-order Boussinesq equations represent the most advanced set of Boussinesq-type equations
capable of modelling nonlinear and dispersive waves from shallow to deep water without the practical limitations of
classical Boussinesq-type equations.
The high-order Boussinesq equations constitute a highly complex system of coupled equations which put any numerical
method to the test. The main problems that need to be overcome to solve the equations are the treatment of strongly
nonlinear convection-type terms and spatially varying coefficient terms; efficient and robust solution of the resultant timedependent linear system; and the numerical treatment of high-order and cross-differential derivatives. The suggested
solution strategy of the current work is based on a collocation approach where the DG-FEM is used to approximate spatial
derivatives and the boundary conditions are imposed weakly using a symmetry technique. Since collocation methods are
prone to aliasing errors, various anti-aliasing strategies are applied for the stabilization of the models. A practical and
relatively straightforward discretization is applied, which is based on a simple treatment of slip boundary conditions at wall
surfaces.
A linear Fourier analysis has been applied to obtain generic analytical results which can be used for validating the discrete
implementation and provide the basis for choosing stable discretization parameters as well as giving new insight into the
properties of the high-order Boussinesq equations. Remarkably, it is demonstrated that the linear eigenspectra of the
linearized semi-discrete equation system is bounded and hence the stable time increment is not dictated by the spatial
discretization. This is a favorable property for explicit time-integration schemes as the stable time increment is not subject
to severe restrictions which can affect the performance of the scheme. It is demonstrated that the discrete properties of
both DG-FEM and finite difference methods can be discretized to mimic the analytical properties.
It is investigated mathematically and demonstrated numerically how the relaxation method of \cite{LD83} can be applied in
spectral/$hp$ multi-domain methods for both accurate internal wave generation of arbitrary wave fields and efficient
absorption near domain boundaries. The method is considered to be particular attractive for wave generation purposes for
use with high-order Boussinesq models as it alleviates the need for specifying consistent boundary conditions, and
importantly, it is a very straightforward and flexible method.
The DG-FEM models have been applied to a number of tests in both one and two horizontal dimensions with the objective
of both validating the setup against known analytical and experimental test results, and at the same time demonstrating
the attractive properties of the method. It has been demonstrated that difficult nonlinear and dispersive wave problems can
be solved accurately in one horizontal dimension. In two horizontal dimensions it has been demonstrated that the model
can solve problems in both regular and irregular geometries and by comparison with analytical results it is shown that the
results are in general in excellent agreement.
Thus, it has been established that the DG-FEM can be used to solve this relatively complicated system of equations. The
computational efficiency of the method has yet to be demonstrated.

A deterministic combination of numerical and physical models for coastal waves

Numerical and physical modelling are the two main tools available for predicting the influence of water waves on
coastlines and structures placed in the near-shore environment. Numerical models can cover large areas at the correct
scale, but are limited in their ability to capture strong nonlinearities, wave breaking, splash, mixing, and other such
complicated physics. Physical models naturally include the real physics (at the model scale), but are limited by the
physical size of the facility and must contend with the fact that different physical effects scale differently. An integrated use
of numerical and physical modelling hence provides an attractive alternative to the use of either tool on it's own. The goal
of this project has been to develop a deterministically combined numerical/physical model where the physical wave tank is
enclosed in a much larger computational domain, and the two models communicate via a multi-flap wave generator placed
along one boundary of the physical model. Previous work in this regard has typically been by means of a one-way transfer
of stochastic information based on linear theory, which precludes the transfer of important phase and nonlinear
information. A new ad hoc unified wave generation method has been developed which combines the theories of nonlinear
shallow water generation and linear deep water generation. The numerical model used is the Mike21BW model developed
at DHI - Water \& Environment. The theory is tested in a wave flume (2-D waves) and in a 3-D wave basin and is generally
successful. The method is also tested with the numerical model replaced by a fully nonlinear periodic wave theory (Stream
Function Theory) and it turns out to be far superior to existing wave generation techniques in it's ability to generate highly
nonlinear periodic waves of constant form.

A method for generating highly nonlinear periodic waves in physical wave basins
This abstract describes a new method for generating nonlinear waves of constant form in physical wave basins. The idea
is to combine fully dispersive linear wavemaker theory with nonlinear shallow water wave generation theory; and use an
exact nonlinear theory as the target. We refer to the method as an ad-hoc unified wave generation theory, since there is
no rigorous analysis behind the idea which is simply justified by the improved results obtained for the practical generation
of steady nonlinear waves.

A numerical study of nonlinear wave run-up on a vertical plate

A finite difference model based on a recently derived highly-accurate Boussinesq-type formulation is presented. Up to the
third-order space derivatives in terms of the velocity variables are retained, and the horizontal velocity variables are reformulated in terms of a velocity potential. This decreases the total number of unknowns in two horizontal dimensions from
seven to five, simplifying the implementation, and leading to increased computational efficiency. Analysis of the embedded
properties demonstrates that the resulting model has applications with errors of 2 to 3% for (wavenumber times depth) kh
$LSEQ 10 in terms of dispersion and kh $LSEQ 4 in terms of internal kinematics. The stability and accuracy of the
discrete linearised systems are also analysed for both potential and velocity formulations and the advantages and
disadvantages of each are discussed. The velocity potential model is then used to study physically demanding problems
involving highly nonlinear wave run-up on a bottom-mounted (surface-piercing) plate. New cases involving oblique
incidence are considered. In all cases, comparisons with recent physical experiments demonstrate good quantitative
accuracy, even in the most demanding cases, where the local wave steepness can exceed (waveheight divided by
wavelength) H / L = 0.20. The velocity potential model is additionally shown to have numerical advantages when dealing
with wave-structure interactions, requiring less smoothing around exterior structural corners.

Nodal DG-FEM solution of high-order Boussinesq-type equations

We present a discontinuous Galerkin finite element method (DG-FEM) solution to a set of high-order Boussinesq-type
equations for modelling highly nonlinear and dispersive water waves in one and two horizontal dimensions. The
continuous equations are discretized using nodal polynomial basis functions of arbitrary order in space on each element of
an unstructured computational domain. A fourth order explicit Runge-Kutta scheme is used to advance the solution in
time. Methods for introducing artificial damping to control mild nonlinear instabilities are also discussed. The accuracy and
convergence of the model with both h (grid size) and p (order) refinement are verified for the linearized equations, and
calculations are provided for two nonlinear test cases in one horizontal dimension: harmonic generation over a submerged
bar; and reflection of a steep solitary wave from a vertical wall. Test cases for two horizontal dimensions will be considered
in a future paper.

Numerical simulation of lowest-order short-crested wave instabilities

A numerical study of doubly periodic deep-water short-crested wave instabilities, arising from various quartet resonant
interactions, is conducted using a high-order Boussinesq-type model. The model is first verified through a series of
simulations involving classical class I plane wave instabilities. These correctly lead to well-known (nearly symmetric)
recurrence cycles below a previously established breaking threshold steepness, and to an asymmetric evolution
(characterized by a permanent transfer of energy to the lower side-band) above this threshold, with dissipation from a
smoothing filter promoting this behaviour in these cases. A series of class Ia short-crested wave instabilities, near the
plane wave limit, are then considered, covering a wide range of incident wave steepness. A close match with theoretical
growth rates is demonstrated near the inception. It is shown that the unstable evolution of these initially three-dimensional
waves leads to an asymmetric evolution, even for weakly nonlinear cases presumably well below breaking. This is
characterized by an energy transfer to the lower side-band, which is also accompanied by a similar transfer to more
distant upper side-bands. At larger steepness, the evolution leads to a permanent downshift of both the mean and peak
frequencies, driven in part by dissipation, effectively breaking the quasi-recurrence cycle. A single case involving a class Ib
short-crested wave instability at relatively large steepness is also considered, which demonstrates a reasonably similar
evolution. These simulations consider the simplest physical situations involving three-dimensional instabilities of genuinely
three-dimensional progressive waves, revealing qualitative differences from classical two-dimensional descriptions. This
study is therefore of fundamental importance in understanding the development of three-dimensional wave spectra.

On the accuracy and efficiency of finite difference solutions for nonlinear waves
We consider the relative accuracy and efficiency of low- and high-order finite difference discretizations of the exact
potential flow problem for nonlinear water waves. The continuous differential operators are replaced by arbitrary order
finite difference schemes on a structured but non-uniform grid. Time-integration is performed using a fourth-order RungeKutta scheme. The linear accuracy, stability and convergence properties of the method are analyzed in two-dimensions,
and high-order schemes with a stretched vertical grid are found to be advantageous relative to second-order schemes on
an even grid. Comparison with highly accurate periodic solutions shows that these conclusions carry over to nonlinear
problems. The combination of non-uniform grid spacing in the vertical and fourth-order schemes is suggested as providing
an optimal balance between accuracy and complexity for practical purposes.

Springing response due to bidirectional wave excitation

Springing is a two-node high frequency resonant vibration of the hull induced by unsteady wave pressure field on the hull.
The excitation force may be rather complex - any wave activity (or their combination) in the Ocean matching the two-node
natural hull vibration frequency. With some ship designs the hull natural frequency may get low enough that the
corresponding level of excitation energy becomes large. Springing vibration negatively influences the fatigue life of the
ship but, paradoxically, it still doesn't get much attention of the technical society. Usually, non-linear hydroelastic theories
deal with the unidirectional wave excitation. This is quite standard. The problem is how to include more than one
directional wave systems described by a wave spectrum with arbitrary heading. The main objective of the present work
has been to account for the additional second-order springing excitation coming from interacting directional waves. The
modification has been implemented in the Second Order Strip Theory (SOST) computer programme developed by Jensen
and Pedersen, 1981; Jensen and Dogliani, 1996, based on the relative motion strip theory (Gerritsma and Beukelmann,
1964). The quadratic strip theory is an efficient tool for load calculation that has been validated and proven to give
satisfactory results in the range of rigid body wave-induced loads. The present results from the linear analysis show very
good agreement with other computer programmes for wave-induced loads calculation. Compared to the results of the fullscale measurements they agree quite satisfactory, too. Some differences inevitably appear between the different codes
since they are not consistent in calculation of hydrodynamic coefficients, diffraction potential etc. On the contrary, the
results from different non-linear (second order) high frequency springing analyses with unidirectional wave excitation are
much more scattered. Some of the reasons are different level of wave excitation accounted in the different Executive
Summary ivtheories, inclusion of additional hydrodynamic phenomena e.g. slamming in the time-domain procedures, the
structural damping coefficient uncertainty or some purely numerical details in the programme execution. Comparison with
full-scale measurements clearly shows that in some cases all the presented computer programmes strongly underestimate
the level of springing stresses in the hull. Not only a discrepancy with full-scale measurements exists, but worse is that no
tendency in the measurement trend is captured. An important source of high frequency springing excitation is undoubtedly
missing. The full-scale measurements that are presented in the thesis and have been used for the validation are unique
because, to the author's knowledge, this is the first time that the wave data were collected simultaneously with stress
records on the deck of the ship. This is highly appreciated because one can use the precise input and not only the most
probable sea state statistics. The actual picture of the sea waves leads to the conclusion that the sea surface is rarely
unidirectional and that two main wave directions usually can distinguish. This could be explained by existence of wind
waves and swell in the ocean, or sudden change in wind direction that could create a wave system from the new direction
while the energy is still not dissipated in the old waves. The new excitation coming from second order interaction between
the two considered wave systems is included. The improvement of the agreement between the calculated and measured
high frequency springing response is high while there was almost no change in rigid body response. This thesis should,
hopefully, contribute to the better understanding of the springing response and it's excitation, recommend the way to
include this new and very important excitation source and, finally, it should highlight the need to consider springing loads
already in predesign stage at least for some types of ships and loading conditions.

Computation of nonlinear water waves with a high-order Boussinesq model

Computational highlights from a recently developed high-order Boussinesq model are shown. The model is capable of
treating fully nonlinear waves (up to the breaking point) out to dimensionless depths of (wavenumber times depth) kh
\approx 25. Cases considered include the study of short-crested waves in shallow/deep water, resulting in
hexagonal/rectangular surface patterns; crescent waves, resulting from unstable perturbations of plane progressive
waves; and highly-nonlinear wave-structure interactions. The emphasis is on physically demanding problems, and in
eachcase qualitative and (when possible) quantitative accuracy is demonstrated, reflecting the current state-of-the-art in
high-order Boussinesq modeling.

This paper describes the extension of a finite difference model based on a recently derived highly accurate Boussinesq
formulation to include domains having arbitrary piecewise-rectangular bottom-mounted (surface-piercing) structures. The
resulting linearized system is analyzed for stability on a structurally divided domain, and it is shown that exterior corner
points pose potential stability problems, as well as other numerical difficulties. These are mainly due to the discretization of
high-order mixed-derivative terms near these points, where the flow is theoretically singular. Fortunately, the system is
receptive to dissipation, and these problems can be overcome in practice using high-order filtering techniques. The
resulting model is verified through numerical simulations involving classical linear wave diffraction around a semi-infinite
breakwater, linear and nonlinear gap diffraction, and highly nonlinear deep water wave run-up on a vertical plate. These
cases demonstrate the applicability of the model over a wide range of water depth and nonlinearity.

Linear and nonlinear Stability analysis for finite difference discretizations of higher order Boussinesq equations
This paper considers a method of lines stability analysis for finite difference discretizations of a recently published
Boussinesq method for the study of highly nonlinear and extremely dispersive water waves. The analysis demonstrates
the near-equivalence of classical linear Fourier (von Neumann) techniques with matrix-based methods for formulations in
both one and two horizontal dimensions. The matrix-based method is also extended to show the local de-stabilizing effects
of the nonlinear terms, as well as the stabilizing effects of numerical dissipation. A comparison of the relative stability of
rotational and irrotational formulations in two horizontal dimensions provides evidence that the irrotational formulation has
significantly better stability properties when the deep-water nonlinearity is high, particularly on refined grids. Computation
of matrix pseudospectra shows that the system is only moderately non-normal, suggesting that the eigenvalues are likely
suitable for analysis purposes. Numerical experiments demonstrate excellent agreement with the linear analysis, and good
qualitative agreement with the local nonlinear analysis. The various methods of analysis combine to provide significant
insight into into the numerical behavior of this rather complicated system of nonlinear PDEs.

Large scale experiments as a tool for numerical model development

Experimental modelling is an important tool for study of hydrodynamic phenomena. The applicability of experiments can
be expanded by the use of numerical models and experiments are important for documentation of the validity of numerical
tools. In other cases numerical tools can be applied for improvement of the reliability of physical model results. This paper
demonstrates by examples that numerical modelling benefits in various ways from experimental studies (in large and small
laboratory facilities). The examples range from very general hydrodynamic descriptions of wave phenomena to specific
hydrodynamic interaction with structures. The examples also show that numerical model development benefits from
international co-operation and sharing of high quality results.

Loads on a 3D body due to second order waves and a current

Non-linear loads on a fixed body due to waves and a current are investigated. Potential theory is used to describe the flow,
and a three-dimensional (3D) boundary element method (BEM), combined with a time-stepping procedure, is used to
solve the problem. The exact free-surface boundary conditions are expanded about the still-water level by Taylor series so
that the solution is evaluated on a time-invariant geometry. A formulation correct to second order in the wave steepness
and to first order in the current speed is used. Numerical results are obtained for the first-order and the second-order
oscillatory forces and for the second-order mean force on a fixed vertical circular cylinder in waves and a current. The
second-order oscillatory forces on the body in waves and current are new results, while the remaining force components
are verified by comparison with established numerical and analytical models. It is shown that the current can have a
significant influence on the forces, and especially on the amplitude of the second-order oscillatory component.
