Abstract:
The horizontal forces, vertical forces and overturning moments exerted by waves on a fixed model of a 45" conical structure are presented. Irregular wave loading tests were conducted for a range of conditions described by base diameter on peak period wave length D/Lp from 0.31 to 1.76, water depth on peak period wave length h/Lp from 0.11 to 0.63, and significant wave height on peak period wave length Hm./Lp up to 0.07. Time series records, spectral densities and transfer functions for the irregular wave loading tests are used to illustrate the nonlinear nature of the measured wave loads. In most cases, similar trends in wave loading were observed for irregular and regular wave tests. For deep-water waves, the irregular and regular force measurements showed spectral peaks at the second harmonic of the wave frequency even though the waves themselves had relatively small second-order components. However, unlike the regular wave loading results, the fundamental spectral peak frequency for the irregular wave forces occurred at a frequency considerably lower than the peak frequency of the waves. Although linear diffraction theory provided a reasonable estimate of the wave forces for waves of low steepness, larger deviations were often present for higher wave steepness results. Comparison of theory and experiment for overturning moments was generally very poor for most wave conditions.

Abstract:
Aiming at the determination of the rational loading waveform for rock materials, the comparative impact tests under the loadings of rectangular and half-sine stress waves were performed on red sandstone using an Ø50 mm SHPB apparatus. Experimental results with the rectangular stress wave affirm that the waveform dispersion and stress-strain curve oscillation frequently exist during the test of rock materials, which signifies that the accuracy of test results derived from the rectangular stress wave loading cannot be guaranteed. Under the loading of the half-sine stress wave, the phenomenon of wave dispersion during the tests has been eliminated radically, and there is no oscillation in the stress-strain curves. To further demonstrate the rationality of the half-sine wave loading in the SHPB test, by utilizing the three-dimensional numerical simulation approach, the propagations of rectangular, triangular, and half-sine stress waves travelling in the axial and radial directions of the SHPB with four elastic bar diameter sizes are analyzed and compared. The results show that the waveform dispersion of the rectangular and triangular stress waves always exists and will be more and more serious with increasing diameter size and propagation distance. For the half-sine stress wave, the waveform dispersion effect is very weak and not affected by the bar diameter size and propagation distance. The half-sine stress wave is the rational loading waveform for rock SHPB tests with different bar diameters.

Abstract:
The Canadian Standards Association has developed and published a code for the design and construction of fixed offshore structures. This code has been subjected to a comprehensive verification process which has identified several issues warranting further study. One of these relates to the combined effects of wave and iceberg collision loading. At present, this combination is treated by the use of a load combination factor specified in the Code. The present paper describes a recent study which was undertaken to determine the appropriateness of the recommended value of the load combination factor. The study involves a numerical analysis in which loads due to waves alone, an iceberg alone, and an iceberg and waves in combination have been calculated for a range of iceberg and wave parameters. These results have been applied to a first-order reliability analysis in order to study the force levels corresponding to an annual probability of 10−4 or to the onset of global sliding with an annual probability of 10−4. The paper thereby makes recommendations for load combination factors applicable to combined wave–iceberg loading. Key words: hydrodynamics, icebergs, ocean engineering, offshore structures, wave forces, waves.

Abstract:
Coastal structures such as breakwaters are usually studied under wave loading only. However, at several locations also a current is present. For instance, breakwaters along intake and outfall channels of power plants and desalination plants, or structures in regions with important tidal currents, experience wave loading that can be affected by currents. Nevertheless, wave overtopping and rubble mound stability are usually studied under wave loading only; the effects of waves on wave overtopping and rock slope stability have been summarised in many empirical design formulae. None of the existing empirical relations account for the effects of currents on the wave loading and consequently on wave overtopping and rock slope stability. The effects of wave-current interaction on wave overtopping and rubble mound stability has not been quantified, other than that for mild currents these processes are dominated by waves. Therefore, the present study is focussed on wave loading in combination with a strong current. This study is based on physical model tests in a wave-current basin. The results show to what extent wave overtopping and rubble mound stability are affected by wave loading in combination with a current. Wave overtopping and the damage to rock slopes generally reduce due to the presence of a current compared to the situation without a current.

Abstract:
Feasibility of rock dynamic properties by split-Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) was experimentally and numerically evaluated with ANSYS/LS-DYNA. The effects of different diameters, different loading rates, and different propagation distances on wave dispersion of input bars in SHPB with rectangle and half-sine wave loadings were analyzed. The results show that the dispersion effect on the diameter of input bar, loading rate, and propagation distance under half-sine waveform loading is ignorable compared with the rectangle wave loading. Moreover, the degrees of stress uniformity under rectangle and half-sine input wave loadings are compared in SHPB tests, and the time required for stress uniformity is calculated under different above-mentioned loadings. It is confirmed that the stress uniformity can be realized more easily using the half-sine pulse loading compared to the rectangle pulse loading, and this has significant advantages in the dynamic test of rock-like materials. Finally, the Holmquist-Johnson-Concrete constitutive model is introduced to simulate the failure mechanism and failure and fragmentation characteristics of rock under different strain rates. And the numerical results agree with that obtained from the experiment, which confirms the effectiveness of the model and the method.

Abstract:
t is one of precondition of determining rock material dynamic parameters for one-dimension assumption of the elastic pressure bar. In order to analyze its effect by loading wave type, the dynamic stress was simulated with Ls-dynamic finite element software, when SHPB(Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar) pressure bar with diameter of 50 mm, 75 mm and 100 mm were impacted respectively by a cycle rectangular loading wave and half sine loading wave. The stress waves of cross section in different diameter pressure bar and the different distance with pressure bar end were compared and analyzed. The results indicated that the dispersion of stress waves was very serious and the matching ability of stress wave at different distances in pressure bar was poor when the rectangular wave was loaded. However, the dispersion of stress wave was not obvious with the increase of the diameter of pressure bar and the change of pressure bar when the half sine wave was loaded. The half sine loading wave which can strictly meet the one-dimension assumption is one of the ideal loading waveforms of the rocky heterogeneous materials.

Abstract:
Monopiles able to support very large offshore wind turbines are slender structures susceptible to nonlinear resonant phenomena. With the aim to better understand and model the wave-loading on these structures in very steep waves where ringing occurs and the numerical wave-loading models tend to lose validity, this study investigates the distinct influences of nonlinearities in the wave kinematics and in the hydrodynamic loading models. Six wave kinematics from linear to fully nonlinear are modelled in combination with four hydrodynamic loading models from three theories, assessing the effects of both types of nonlinearities and the wave conditions where each type has stronger influence. The main findings include that the nonlinearities in the wave kinematics have stronger influence in the intermediate water depth, while the choice of the hydrodynamic loading model has larger influence in deep water. Moreover, finite-depth FNV theory captures the loading in the widest range of wave and cylinder conditions. The areas of worst prediction by the numerical models were found to be the largest steepness and wave numbers for second harmonic, as well as the vicinity of the wave-breaking limit, especially for the third harmonic. The main cause is the non-monotonic growth of the experimental loading with increasing steepness due to flow separation, which leads to increasing numerical overpredictions since the numerical wave-loading models increase monotonically.

Abstract:
This paper presents results from an experiment designed to improve the understanding of the relationship between extreme breaking waves and their mechanical loading on heritage offshore lighthouses. The experiment, conducted at La Jument, an iconic French offshore lighthouse, featured several records of wave, current and structure accelerations acquired during severe storm conditions, with individual waves as high as 24 m. Data analysis focuses on a storm event marked by a strong peak in the horizontal accelerations measured inside La Jument. Thanks to stereo-video wave measurements synchronized to the acceleration record we were able to identify and describe the breaking wave responsible for this intense loading. Our observations suggest that this giant wave (19 m high) had a crest elevation high enough to directly hit the lighthouse tower, above the substructure. This paper reveals the potential for conducting ambitious field experiments from offshore lighthouses in order to collect valuable storm waves and wave loading observations. This offers a possible second service life for these heritage structures as in situ laboratories dedicated to the study of the coastal hydrodynamics and its interaction with marine structures. This article is part of the theme issue ‘Environmental loading of heritage structures’.

Abstract:
Two commercial Navier-Stokes solvers are applied to wave-wave and wave-structure interaction problems leading to the final application of simulating a single float of the wave energy converter (WEC) Manchester Bobber in extreme waves and a fixed section of the Pelamis in regular waves. First the two software packages CFX and STAR CCM+ are validated against measured results from physical tank tests concerning the interaction of 3 non-linear focused wave groups of different steepness (Ning et al. 2007). The agreement for all of these cases is very good and could even be improved from first order to second order wave setup at the wavemaker. However, in preliminary regular wave tests, the damping of the waves is identified to be an issue, which is the reason for focusing the waves and placing the structures in the following experiments approximately one wavelength behind the wavemaker. The interaction of fixed vertical and horizontal cylinders in regular waves are simulated concerning the forces on the structures (Kriebel 1998, Dixon et al. 1979). For the horizontal cylinder non-linear force oscillations of double the wave frequency could be modelled in good agreement with physical tank data, where linearised models failed. For the vertical cylinder the problem of the secondary load cycle due to a backward-breaking wave behind the cylinder is of special interest (Stansberg 1997, Chaplin et al. 1997). Here, the horizontal forces on a slender cylinder with a diameter approximately equal to the wave height are simulated successfully. Furthermore, the highly non-linear wave run-up in front of the cylinder is resolved well in the numerical approach. The next set of simulations includes rigid body motion. Here, the forced oscillations of a cone shaped body near the still water surface is simulated. These results are compared with test data published by Drake et al. (2008). For these cases the non-linearity of the experiments is discussed by comparing the sum and differences of the force and surface elevation time histories for a set of simulations with opposite excursion of the cone. The hydrodynamic forces on the cone surface are resolved in very good agreement. The solution of the surface elevation close to the cone surface is also resolved reasonably well. After having validated the codes for fixed wave-structure interaction problems and forced motion, the CFD methods are finally applied to problems relevant to the survivability of WECs. First a single float in waves is modelled. This challenging case combines the extreme wave setup with a floating body problem in one and two degrees of freedom including the interaction of the float inertia with the inertia of a separate mass attached to it. The vertical translations of the float are compared with physical tank tests by Stallard et al. (2008). This case clearly demonstrates the capabilities and challenges in using CFD to simulate WECs. When representing the pulley and counterweight system by a simplified external body force rather than the full setup, the calculated translations of the float agreed better with the measured results from the physical tank test. Furthermore the codes are used to simulate a single fixed section of the Pelamis device in regular waves. The surface elevations close to the device are discussed and the forces acting on different strips on the structure are presented.

Abstract:
Wave energy is one of the possible solutions for meeting the future energy demand in a clean and sustainable way. Extracting large amounts of energy, a wave energy device would be subjected to extreme and fatigue loads from the waves. Designing such a device, a trade off needs to be done between making a device that is strong enough to withstand the loads and on the same time not too heavy making it inefficient and too costly. Having good estimations of extreme and fatigue loads are therefore critical when designing an efficient wave energy device. This thesis has aimed to create a tool that can be used between the already existing hydrodynamic and solid mechanic models available at CorPower Oceean. The goal has been that the tool shall extract the extreme and fatigue loads from the hydrodynamic model and format them in a way so that they can be used in the solid mechanical model. Four different tools have been created and compared for calculating fatigue using amplitude and spectral methods, where the amplitude methods also are able to estimate extreme loads. The fatigue tools have been evaluated against each other in a simple example showing that the estimated accumulated fatigue damage can be decreased by using several variables. An application of the tools has been done on a critical sub system of the wave energy device developed by CorPower Ocean. Where in this application critical points against extreme loading and fatigue have been localized. A new design has been suggested based on the strength analysis from the first one. Increasing the number of variables and using the tools developed in this thesis can significantly improve the fatigue damage estimations of the system. What fatigue method to use depends on the details for each case.

Abstract:
Wave-bearing surfaces and compressible fluids are often adjacent, the subsequent interactions are of substantial interest in structural acoustics, acoustic microscopy, seismology and many other fields. Here we take a broad view and discuss a variety of problems, both time harmonic and transient, which are amenable to exact solution. These in turn highlight physical effects and can additionally form the basis of asymptotic solutions. In structural acoustics the interaction of plate waves with defects is Cl major source of underwater noise. A model problem of two semi-infinite elastic plates (made of different material) joined in a variety of ways is considered for obliquely incident flexural plate waves. Asymptotic results for 'light' and 'heavy' fluid loading are extracted. In addition reciprocity and power flow relations, besides being of independent interest, provide a useful check on the results. There are many closely related problems involving a fluid loaded elastic solid. The situation here is somewhat similar, but often more complicated, due to the number of waves that an elastic solid supports, mode conversion at interfaces, and interfacial waves. We first address the scattering effects of low frequency waves by very small interfacial defects, that is, small relative to a typical wavelength. In this limit, and in related water wave or acoustic work, matched asymptotic expansions are used. An important aspect, that has not been noticed before, is the natural separation that occurs in the inner problem into fluid and solid pieces. A matching argument may now be used to give a useful physical interpretation of these defects and far field directivity patterns show the distinctive beaming that occurs along the Rayleigh angles in the light fluid loading limit. In many areas of interest embedded defects are imaged by pulses and we therefore require a transient analysis. In this case our problem involves a combination of compressional and shear source loadings beneath a fluid-solid interface. The exact solution is found and a full asymptotic analysis of this solution is performed with an emphasis upon wavefront expansions and leaky waves, and in particular, for 'light' and 'moderate' fluid loading. In some situations, when the sources are near the interface, a pseudo-compressional wavefront is generated and the limit as the loading approaches the interface is investigated. These non-geometric wave arrivals may be important in seismology and elastic wave studies related to the non-destructive evaluation of structures. This study is generalised to investigate the dynamic stress loading of subsurface cracks in either homogeneous or non-homogeneous media. An iterative method of solution based on physical considerations is developed and quantities of interest such as the scattered displacement fields and the stress intensity factors are determined. The problems considered here are ideally suited to analysis by transform methods and the Wiener-Hopf and Cagniard-de Hoop techniques.

Abstract:
This study investigates the relationship between wave-induced hydrodynamics and the resulting loading on Core-Loc concrete armour units below the still water level in a breakwater structure. Physical modelling experiments were performed at the National Research Council in Ottawa in which a 3D-printed 12 cm Core-Loc armour unit was instrumented and fixed in place within a rubble mound structure. Testing featured simultaneous measurement of force on this instrumented unit, pressure head at the base of the unit, and flow velocities below the SWL. Two main scenarios were tested, the isolated unit and fully armoured scenarios, under a range of regular waves and irregular sea states. Analysis of force development on the instrumented unit indicates that maximum slope-normal forces (both into and away from the structure) are associated with extremes in pressure head above the instrumented unit, while slope-parallel force extremes (both upslope and downslope) occur at times of the fastest change in water level. These loadings are consistent with Morison’s equation and imply drag dominance in the slope-parallel direction and inertia dominance in the slope-normal direction. Significant differences in forces were observed between isolated (no neighbouring units) and embedded (with neighbouring units) armour unit test cases. The presence of the armour layer significantly increased the normal force exerted on the unit and reduced the parallel force. Irregular sea state testing shows force peaks following normal distribution. Analysis of flow above the armour layer showed that force, flow velocity and flow acceleration are symmetrical in the slope-parallel direction, but largely asymmetrical in the slope-normal direction, with the flow velocity and force on the unit in particular experiencing large asymmetries. Wave height analysis indicated that each wave height follows a similar force development pattern with a magnitude proportional to wave height. Wave period analysis showed the formation of small secondary waves as the period increases. Wave steepness affected the peak force loading of the instrumented unit in a mostly linear fashion up to the critical Iribarren number.

Full text
Abstract:
In 1989 the Schiehallion FPSO suffered bow damage from a steep fronted wave slap and the uncertainty in how to design for this type of loading became a concern to the oil industry and the regulators. The aim of this study is to research the insight of breaking wave impact on the bow of ship-type offshore structures experimentally and develop a methodology on how to design this type of loading. Steep wave impact pressures and the structural dynamic response on FPSO (shipshaped Floating oil Production Storage and Offloading vessel) bows are studied using 1180 scale instrumented models and time domain simulation with the funding from HSE and BP, a grant from EPSRC, associated in-kind industrial contributions, a University/Departmental Scholarship and an IMarEST Scholarship. This work has increased the understanding of the nature of the breaking waves that can cause large slap forces that are important for the design of offshore floating structures (and should also be relevant to ship design). Methods of generating model scale wave groups that should produce approximately the 1 in 3 hour maximum loads, when large waves break in unidirectional sea states prescribed by Hs and Tz, have been developed. These methods have been extended to spread seas and also to a 'partial' breaking wave in less steep seas, but no testing has taken place in spread seas or the longer period seas. In addition an empirical relationship has been determined that represents the steepening of a wave front based on the underlying linear wave. The forces and pressures from these waves have been measured on 1180 scale models of the Schiehallion FPSO and Loch Rannoch shuttle tanker. A time history simulation method of bow loading in random seas has been developed. It uses the wave front steepening relationship derived from the tests and a relatively simple slap force prediction based on velocity times rate of change of added mass. Incident wave pressure effects (with a non-linear correction) and added mass times acceleration forces are also included. Simple slam coefficient type formula has also been derived for easy application. The formula accounts for the effect of the size of the loaded area on the average pressure and the rise and decay times of the average pressure and, hence, the dynamic amplification of the response at the bow. The above experimental and theoretical work has considerably advanced the quantitative understanding of bow slap. Quantitatively we have some confidence in the most probable maximum slap force predictions in: long-crested seas with sea state steepnesses around 1114 - 1115 and when no air is trapped.

Abstract:
The evaluation of the wave-induced soil response is particularly important for many coastal engineering installations such as offshore pipelines, platforms and breakwaters. Most previous investigations have been limited to the linear regular wave loading, even though the real situation is under random waves. In this study, we propose a semi-analytical solution for the random wave-induced pore pressure and effective stresses in marine sediments. Based on the new analytical solutions, different soil responses under the random wave loading are investigated and compared with the corresponding results under the linear regular waves. Numerical examples demonstrate the significant difference on wave-induced seabed response between these two wave loadings due to the irregularity introduced by the random waves. Finally, the influence of several soil parameters on the soil response under random wave loading is also examined.

Abstract:
This paper describes results from wave tank testing on a 1/25 scale model of a moored oscillating water column (OWC) wave energy device. The device incorporates a piece-wise linear parabolic wall to focus the waves onto a three-sided OWC chamber. Model tests were conducted to determine the mooring line loads and associated structure motions in both a taut-moored floating configuration and a semi-fixed configuration. All six degrees of motion were recorded continuously along with forces in twelve mooring lines. Tests were conducted for a range of wave conditions and angles of incidence. For a device with a 35m wide parabolic wall (prototype scale), peak mooring line forces below 350Te were measured. In extreme conditions, heave motions were found to exceed design requirements in the floating configuration but this was rectified in the semi-fixed configuration. The paper presents a summary of the average results found and some of the dynamic response characteristics of the structure in various sea conditions. Implications for full-scale design and operation of the device are also discussed.

Abstract:
The TLP model tests in CresT [1] showed that there is a significant difference in the maximum load events due to long-crested and short-crested waves of same peak period and significant wave height. This decrease in load amplitudes for increasing spreading was not dominated by the reduction in crest heights, but related to a change in wave excitation. In ShorT-CresT wave-in-deck model tests were carried out with the focus on the physics of impact loading. The primary objective of the platform tests was to link crest height and wave impact with local and global loading on the deck. The model test results showed that the global vertical loads in short-crested waves can be similar to long-crested events, if the wetted deck area is comparable. In other words, the platform deck loading corresponds to the relative short-crestedness of the sea state: if the crest length is at least as large as the characteristic deck dimension, the loads are significantly larger than for lower crest lengths (step change). In this paper the results of the wave-in-deck model tests are presented and discussed. The analysis of the model tests is focused on a comparison between short-crested and long-crested impacts and a comparison of the measurements to a simplified loading model.

Abstract:
Extreme wave impacts on the decks of offshore structures with insufficient air gap may cause damage or even collapse with safety, economic, and pollution consequences. In this study, the impact loads on a fixed platform deck have been predicted numerically by employing a Navier-Stokes solver with the free-surface captured by the volume of fluid (VOF) method. 3D numerical simulations of wave-deck interactions for long-crested extreme waves were performed. The simulations successfully captured the evolution of impact loads and free surface of the waves during the interaction with the platform deck. A detailed parametric analysis of wave-deck interactions showed significant differences in loads under various situations and confirmed the large magnitudes of the loads to be expected during impact. The results presented include a solid box and a more realistic case of under-deck beams. These provide a useful benchmark for predicting wave loadings on platform decks and through this research programme the longer term aim is to establish improved guidelines for assessing the risk of existing structures.

Abstract:
Abstract To quantify the loading due to breaking waves, model tests are currently the option of choice. However, it is suspected that scale effects lead to an overestimation of the prototype loading. As such, a typical question in impact load assessment is how conservative load measurements are. To understand how realistic model testing is in this respect, it is necessary to quantify scale effects in the measured loading due to breaking waves as well as to investigate to which extent entrapped air in the wave and during the wave impact is involved. To do so, the BreaKin Joint Industry Project was started in 2016. The objective of the BreaKin JIP was to get more insight into scale effects involved in wave-in-deck model tests and to take first steps towards linking wave kinematics with measured impact loads. During this JIP wave-in-deck model tests were carried out in MARIN’s Depressurized Wave Basin (DWB) at two scales (25 and 50) in atmospheric and depressurized condition. This paper gives an overview of the results of the BreaKin JIP regarding loading processes involved in wave-in-deck type of impacts, effects of depressurization on measured loads and possible sources of scale effects.

Abstract:
Many engineering structures, in applications such as automobiles, bridges, etc. are assembled by joining the different parts together. Therefore, joints in the mechanical applications play a critical role in durability, flexibility of the mechanical assemblies. Recent advances in adhesive technology have made adhesive joining one of the plausible options in many engineering applications that demand high impact resistance such as ground vehicle armor or civilian vehicles. However, because most of the polymer-based adhesives have non-linear mechanical behavior and loading rate sensitivity caused by their viscoelastic properties, characterization of the adhesives under different loading and environmental conditions become vital in the design of durable and reliable joints in any structure. This study investigated the mode I (bending) response of the adhesive joints to shock-wave loading generated in a large-scale shock tube. The critical failure pressure (P5) of adhesive joints was determined experimentally. Determining the material properties of the adhesive were estimated by the FEM parametric study, and energy absorption capacity of the adhesive joints under different strain rate loadings were investigated.

Abstract:
The US Army Corps of Engineers, Galveston District, is executing the Sabine Pass to Galveston Bay Coastal Storm Risk Management (CSRM) project for Brazoria, Jefferson, and Orange Counties regions. The project is currently in the Pre-construction, Engineering, and Design phase. This report documents coastal storm water level (SWL) and wave hazards for the Freeport CSRM structures. Coastal SWL and wave loading and overtopping are quantified using high-fidelity hydrodynamic modeling and stochastic simulations. The CSTORM coupled water level and wave modeling system simulated 195 synthetic tropical storms on three relative sea level change scenarios for with- and without-project meshes. Annual exceedance probability (AEP) mean values were reported for the range of 0.2 to 0.001 for peak SWL and wave height (Hm0) along with associated confidence limits. Wave period and mean wave direction associated with Hm0 were also computed. A response-based stochastic simulation approach is applied to compute AEP values for overtopping for levees and overtopping, nappe geometry and combined hydrostatic and hydrodynamic fluid pressures for floodwalls. CSRM crest design elevations are defined based on overtopping rates corresponding to incipient damage. Survivability and resilience are evaluated. A system-wide hazard level assessment was conducted to establish final recommended system-wide elevations.
