Investigations Of Breaking Waves & Fluid-Structure Interactions
This project is concerned with understanding nonlinear processes of free-surface water waves, especially when the waves become steep and break. We are also concerned with fluid structure-interaction processes at high Reynolds numbers. Our main approach is numerical model development with a focus on a mesoscopic formulation.
Keyphrases: CFD, mesoscopic approach, fluid-structure interactions, hydro- & aeroelasticity.
