Abstract
The effect of the motion of a rigid inclined plate immersed into a fluid counter incident waves is studied both experimentally and numerically. In the wave water channel experiments the velocity of a trolley with a plate running freely on rails is determined as a function of the wave parameters, the immersion depth, the angle of inclination, and the plate dimensions. The interaction between the traveling waves and the plate having a single translational degree of freedom along the horizontal axis is numerically calculated in the time-dependent, two-dimensional formulation. The dependence of the upwave motion effect on the parameters varied in the full-scale experiment is analyzed. In the numerical experiment a regime of the downwave plate motion at a constant high velocity is found to exist. The channel bottom effect is estimated and the behavior of the plate with a flap is studied.
