  • Flows associated with harbor ship traffic

    Creator:
    Downs, Richard Allen
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this study was to ascertain the potential erosion impacts associated with ship movements in confined waters. The flow associated with a ship passage can be separated accordingly: (1) the propeller wake, (2) flow about the hull, and (3) associated waves. Each of these areas has been analyzed...

  • Flow visualization for wake formation under solitary wave flow

    Creator:
    Seiffert, Betsy Rose
    Abstract:
    The use of data extracted from particle image velocimetry (PIV) along with vector and tensor visualization techniques provides a valuable tool for understanding a complex flow field. By studying a simple geometric structure such as a cylinder under a simple transient waveform, fundamental mechanisms of wake development under solitary wave...
