9781118907108 - Finite-Difference Method for Nonlinear Wave Hydrod ynamics
Secondhand

Article description

Finite-Difference Method for Nonlinear Wave Hydrodynamics Palaniswamy Ananthakrishnan, Florida Atlantic University, USA Presents the theory and analysis of nonlinear wave hydrodynamics problems using the finite-difference method Finite-Difference Method for Nonlinear Wave Hydrodynamics comprehensively covers the analysis of nonlinear wave hydrodynamics problems using the finite-difference method. The book reviews the formulation of wave hydrodynamics and basic properties of ocean waves, presents the theory and derivations involved in the finite-difference method applied to wave hydrodynamics, and focuses on the application of nonlinear boundary conditions including effects of viscosity and surface tension. Finite-Difference Method for Nonlinear Wave Hydrodynamics would enable the reader to develop their own codes for analysis; fully understand and implement commercial software; extend the software by integrating it with design tools; and contribute to further developments in computational wave mechanics. Key features: * Makes comparisons with other computational methods, including grid free methods. * Analyses nonlinear wave-body and wave-vortex interactions. * Discusses current issues in numerical modeling of nonlinear wave motion. * Includes worked out examples. The book is an ideal reference for graduate students, researchers and practitioners in ocean, mechanical, civil and offshore engineering, and naval architecture.
