Numerical Simulations of Regular Wave Impact on Horizontal Plate Based on SPH Methods

Abstract:

The numerical wave flume was established for simulating the impact effects of regular waves on horizontal plate by adopting the method of Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH).The impact process of regular waves on horizontal plate was analyzed, and the impact pressure-time curves were gotten using a new estimation method. The comparison of numerical results and experimental results shows that the new estimation method can predict the peak impact pressure more accurately.
