  1. 16. Evaluation of RANS turbulence models for the hydrodynamic analysis of an axisymmetric streamlined body with special consideration of the velocity distribution in the stern region

    University essay from KTH/Marina system

    Author : Mattias Johansson; [2012]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This is a master’s thesis provided by the Swedish Defence Research Agency FOI and is written for the Center for Naval Architecture at the Royal Institute of Technology KTH. The objective is to perform a systematic simulation campaign of the flow around an axisymmetric streamlined body in order to evaluate several RANS-based turbulence models implemented in the open source CFD software package OpenFOAM.

  3. 17. Modeling wave, currents and sediment transport in Ystad Bay

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Seyed Abbas Hosseini Sadabadi; [2012]
    Keywords : Ystad Bay; EBED Model; SWAN; Modelling Wave; Sediment Transport; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Coastal areas around the world are being shaped by many natural phenomena, as well as by man-induced activities. Hydrodynamic phenomena such as wind-generated waves, extreme storms and seasonal tides cause a continued change in topography and the natural sediment formation in the nearshore zone as a result of erosion and accumulation.

  4. 18. Modelling of Elastic Ship in Waves

    University essay from KTH/Marina system

    Author : Draksharam Manohara Ranganath; [2012]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Ships in the seas undergo different distortions like bending, twisting or combined bending and twisting. The demand for increase in length and speed of the ships is increasing due to this the study for flexibility of structures is becoming important. READ MORE

  5. 19. An Investigation of Exchange Rates in the Tam Giang-Cau Hai Lagoon System, Vietnam, through Hydrodynamic Modeling

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Michael Tushaj; [2009]
    Keywords : SMS; water exchange; engineering; Vietnam; Water Resources; lagoon; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The Tam Giang-Cau Hai lagoon system, two inter-connected and naturally occurring coastal lagoons located in the Thua Thien-Hue province of Vietnam, comprises two inlets: Thuan An and Tu Hien. The Thuan An and Tu Hien inlets connect the lagoon system to the South China Sea and they are subjected to morphologic changes due to sediment transport effects. READ MORE

  6. 20. Introduction of vegetation in large scale hydrodynamic models

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Goncalo Ferreira Cardoso; [2005]
    Keywords : Environmental technology; Väg- och vattenbyggnadsteknik; soil mechanics; vegetation modelling; vegetation modeling; lake hydrodynamics; shallow lakes; hydrodynamic models; hydraulics; Technological sciences; Teknik; Civil engineering; offshore technology; hydraulic engineering; pollution control; Miljöteknik; kontroll av utsläpp; Technology and Engineering; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Vegetation is known to have different effects in shallow water environments, including changes in hydrodynamics. This often creates the need to include vegetation in large scale hydrodynamic models, which nowadays can already be achieved using some software packages available in the market. READ MORE
