DEVELOPMENT OF A SMALL SCALE WAVE TANK WITH A SCIENTIFIC WAVEMAKER
Waves are basically the movement of water molecules within the ocean, and are restricted to the surface layers of our oceans and seas. A wave can be transverse or longitudinal depending on the direction of its oscillation. Instead of studying the behavior of the motion of the ocean in the pre...

| Summary: | Waves are basically the movement of water molecules within the ocean, and are
restricted to the surface layers of our oceans and seas. A wave can
be transverse or longitudinal depending on the direction of its oscillation. Instead of
studying the behavior of the motion of the ocean in the presence of waves, it is
usually preferable to use the small scale models in laboratories. A wave tank is
a laboratory setup for observing the behavior of surface waves. Fully nonlinear wave
body interactions for a stationary floating structure under regular and irregular waves
for different water depths, wave heights and wave periods is examined through
laboratory experiments. |
