  1. 1. Simulation of Irregular Waves and Wave Induced Loads on Wind Power Plants in Shallow Water

    Författare :Jenny Trumars; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wave load; Non-linear wave models; ocean engineering; wind energy converter; perturbation theory; shallow water;

    Sammanfattning : The essay gives a short introduction to waves and discusses the problem with non-linear waves in shallow water and how they effect an offshore wind energy converter. The focus is on the realisation of non-linear waves in the time domain from short-term statistics in the form of a variance density spectrum of the wave elevation. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Lake Hydrodynamics and Pollution Transport under Climate Change : The Case of Lake Victoria

    Författare :Seema Paul; Henrik Ernstson; Zahra Kalantari; Abhijit Mukherjee; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bathymetry mapping; model verification; water balance; correlation; tracer transport; wind hydrodynamics; pollution and nutrient transport; climate effect; Mark- och vattenteknik; Land and Water Resources Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : A very small part of the total earth’s water is freshwater (only 2.5 %). Unfortunately, due to climate change and pervasive manmade activities, surface freshwater quality in many places of the world has become degraded. LÄS MER

  3. 3. A solver for the shallow-water equations on overlapping grids

  4. 4. Spectral/hp Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Computational Hydraulics

    Författare :Claes Eskilsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; spectral hp elements; surface gravity waves; Boussinesq-type equations; shallow water equations; discontinuous Galerkin method;

    Sammanfattning : We present the concept of spectral/hp element methods, i.e. finite element methods of arbitrarily (high) polynomial order, and apply the methods to computational hydraulics. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Geometric Methods for some Nonlinear Wave Equations

    Författare :Jonatan Lenells; Matematik (naturvetenskapliga fakulteten); []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Natural science; Geodesic flow; Nonlinear wave equations; Geometric methods; Naturvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : A number of results related to the geometric interpretation of some dispersive nonlinear wave equations are presented. It is first described how some well-known shallow water equations arise geometrically as Euler equations for the geodesic flow on the Virasoro group endowed with certain right-invariant metrics.
