Abstract

Abstract

A fully nonlinear three-dimensional numerical wave tank (NWT) has been simulated by resolving Laplace equation using the finite element method in the time domain, and the fully nonlinear free surface boundary conditions are used to track free surfaces.Hexahedral element and quadratic inter polation function are used.The analytical solution of sloshing waves and the theoretical ones of second-order Stokes wave are conducted to validate the model.The results show that the model is steady and conservative and can be applied to accurately simulating the generation and transmission of nonlinear waves.
- Laplace equation,
- finite element method,
- wave tank,
