Effect of an Idealized Mangrove Forest of Moderate Cross-shore Width on Loads Measured on a Sheltered Structure and Comparison with Predicted Forces

Creator:: Mitchell, William T.
Abstract:: As coastal communities face increasing chronic and acute hazards, nature-based coastal engineering solutions have experienced a rapid growth in popularity and interest. Recent works on this topic have shown that “Green Infrastructure” may be effective at mitigating coastal hazards and therefore provide sustainable adaptation alternatives to traditional engineering solutions such...

Assessment of the Active Absorption System of the Large Wave Flume

Creator:: Savić, Una
Abstract:: The Large Wave Flume at the O.H. Hinsdale Wave Research Laboratory houses a piston wavemaker with a built-in active absorption system designed by MTS Systems Corporation. The performance of the active absorption system has not been properly assessed yet. This thesis evaluates the performance of the MTS active absorption system...

Application of Motion Capture Technologies to Assess the Free Surface and Track Waterborne Debris in Wave Research Laboratories

Creator:: Shultz, Jamie
Abstract:: In coastal and ocean engineering, understanding the ocean environment and the forces from waves, tsunamis and waterborne debris on structures and floating bodies is an important aspect of designing safe and effective infrastructure. Understanding the impact of these forces on structures becomes an important question in the design process. Answering...

Evaluation of Stereoscopic Camera Systems for Non-Intrusive Spatial Free Surface Measurement in Coastal Research Laboratories

Creator:: O'Day, Christopher S.
Abstract:: Physical modelling is instrumental to the progression of coastal engineering research and our understanding of the offshore and nearshore environments. Scaled models are designed and built to be tested in coastal research laboratories, where a wave basin or flume generates the desired wave conditions for experimentation. The surrounding hydrodynamics of...

Evaluating climate change induced coastal flood impacts to San Diego Bay Naval Infrastructure - a hybrid statistical dynamical modeling approach

Creator:: Anderson, Tyler P.
Abstract:: This study utilizes probabilistic surrogate modeling techniques around San Diego Bay with an emphasis on naval infrastructure and operations to evaluate the impact of five global mean sea level rise scenarios (GMSLR). Spatially continuous total water levels (TWLs) are combined with a digital elevation model (DEM) of the region to...

Physical Modeling of Progressive Damage and Failure of Wood-Frame Coastal Residential Structures Due to Waves and Surge Forces

Creator:: Duncan, Sean M.
Abstract:: A physical model study was performed to examine the forces and response of 1:6 scale wood-frame coastal residential structures subjected to storm surge and waves. An on-grade and an elevated specimen were tested and exposed to regular waves with varying water depths and wave heights to simulate Hurricane Sandy’s conditions....

Optimizing shared mooring and anchoring strength for floating offshore wind turbine arrays

Creator:: Devin, Michael C.
Abstract:: Energy from offshore wind could provide substantial power generation if further utilized. One area of significant research focus is in developing floating offshore wind devices, which would allow for wind energy to be gathered in deep water where driven monopile turbines are infeasible. However, floating offshore wind is not currently...

Deciphering the Tsunami Wave Impact and Associated Connection Forces in Open-Girder Coastal Bridges

Creator:: Istrati, Denis, Buckle, Ian, Lomonaco, Pedro, and Yim, Solomon
Abstract:: In view of the widespread damage to coastal bridges during recent tsunamis (2004 Indian Ocean and 2011 in Japan) large-scale hydrodynamic experiments of tsunami wave impact on a bridge with open girders were conducted in the Large Wave Flume at Oregon State University. The main objective was to decipher the...

Laboratory Observations of Tsunami-Driven Debris Damming with Comparison to ASCE 7-22 Minimum Design Loads

Creator:: Doyle, Kellen C.
Abstract:: Tsunami inundation of coastal communities can impose a wide array of forces on the built environment. Forces generated by tsunami-driven debris damming have the potential to cause failure of coastal structures and further accumulate flow-entrained debris. Since tsunami-resilient design standards were adopted by ASCE in 2016, debris damming considerations have...

Experimental Validation of the Hydrodynamic Coefficients for an Oscillating Water Column Wave Energy Converter

Creator:: Bentivoglio, Marine M. J.
Abstract:: Resulting from the action of wind over open water surfaces, water waves contain colossal amounts of energy that has not yet been harnessed. Seen as a very promising source for renewable energy generation, many studies have tried to make wave energy a cost competitive source by investigating optimal designs of...
