Numerical Calculation Methods for Wavemaking Response Induced by Explosion in Harbour

Using the axial symmetry results of marker and cell (MAC) method as initial value in this paper, two numerical calculating methods are presented for the late wavemaking response induced by explosion in harbour. One of the methods is the superposition method of the vibration mode based on fluid slosh in container. Another one is the joining method of the MAC results with the shallow wave theory calculation in time domain. As a practical example, it is conducted to the numerical calculation about 1000 ton TNT equivalent explosion within touch of water surface. The results show that it can be rationally described with the methods to the wavemaking progress and character. The numerical results are identical with the observed scene on the spot experiment. The methods are simple and applicable in the engineering design.

Nonlinear Wave Force on Pier Group in Shallow Water

Based on the 1st order cnoidal wave theory, the wave diffraction around the pier group inshallow water is studied in this paper. The formulas for calculating the nonlinear wave forces are also presented here. In order to verify the theoretical results, model tests are conducted in the wave flume in The State Key Laboratory of Coastal and Offshore Engineering located in Dalian University of Technology. The range of the wave parameters in the experiments is characteristic wave period T g/d~(1/2) = 8.08- 22.86, characteristic wave height H/ d= 0.1 ~ 0.45. The results obtained from the experiments agree with the theoretical results quite well. It is shown that, in shallow water the nonlinear wave forces acting on a pier group are greater than those calculated by linear wave theory, the value of increment in wave force increases with the increases of the nonlinearity of the wave. In the wave range studied in this paper, the nonlinear wave force can reach over 4 times the force calculatecd by linear wave theory. Thus, it is suggested that, when Tg / d~(1/2)> 8, the wave force on the piers in the pier group in shallow water should be calculated by using the cnoidal wave theory.     

Wave Breaker Indices in Finite Water Depth

Based on the analysis and comparison of wave breaker indices defined by geometric, kinetic as well as dynamic stabilities and verified by observation, the value a, which is equal to H / Lthkd by Miche's result and may be modified by Goda's results, is" suggested as the wave breaking criteria. The applicable values of a for pure waves or wave-current co-existing field are given in this paper. They are smaller than Miche's result (0.142), and they have been verified by model tests.     

浅水非线性长波的数值模拟与实验研究

从数值与实验两方面研究了非线性长周期水波———椭圆余弦波在浅水中的传播。根据造波板作椭圆余弦波运动速度,推导出数值模拟波浪水槽时固定入射边界上的二阶入射边界条件,计算结果表明,二阶入射边界条件对波浪的预报结果比一阶入射边界条件对波浪的预报结果更为精确。对二阶入射边界条件计算结果和实验结果的波面升高时间历程进行傅里叶分析表明,各次谐波幅值沿波浪传播方向作周期性变化,只是变化程度较小;但入射边界条件为一阶时则没有这种现象。     

考虑横缝影响的拱坝动力分析

本文在求解三维弹性静力摩擦接触问题的有效方法-非光滑方程组方法的基础上,通过能够近似满足动量、动能守恒条件的速度、加速度的修正方法,将该方法推广到动力接触问题的求解中,以考虑地震时拱坝中横缝的开合、错动对坝体动力响应的影响。同时文中采用由多次透射公式表示的人工边界条件来考虑坝-基动力相互作用的影响。数值算例中分析了横缝的数目和布置位置对拱坝动力响应的影响。     

双向地震动作用的拟等延性系数谱

首先建立了以强度折减系数表述的恢复力特性满足二维屈服面模型的理想弹塑性单质点系统(它在2个相互垂直的主轴方向上分别具有水平平动自由度)在双向地震动作用下的归一化运动方程。然后引入单向地震动作用下等延性系数的强度折减系数谱,给出了双向地震动作用的拟等延性系数谱(定义为系统分别承受双向和单向地震动作用,在同一主轴方向上的最大位移反应之比)最后通过硬土场地10组双向地震动记录拟等延性系数谱的统计平均结果,分析了结构周期、位移延性系数和阻尼等因素对谱值及结构双向地震反应的影响。结果表明,双向地震动作用与单向地震动作用相比主要增加结构较长周期方向的最大位移反应。若在基于位移的抗震设计中降低结构较短周期方向的设计位移延性系数,可在一定程度上降低双向地震动的不利影响。因定义的谱为比值形式,阻尼对其影响不大。
