Abstract

In order to study the specialties of wave slamming on open-piled structures, a two-dimensional regular wave tank was established based on commercial CFD software FLUENT. Three typical cases of regular wave slamming on the open-piled structures were reproduced by using the numerical wave tank and compared with the experimental data available. Good agreements were obtained between the numerical and experimental results and the average of peak impact pressure was chosen as the characteristic impact pressure. Then regular wave impact pressure on the open-piled structures under various wave height, period and over height were simulated. The influences of the three parameters on the distribution of impact pressure were analyzed.
