METHOD OF REPRODUCTION OF IRREGULAR WAVES IN EXPERIMENTAL BASIN

摘要

FIELD: experimental hydrodynamics; reproduction of irregular waves in experimental basin with the aid of wave generator. SUBSTANCE: proposed method consists in synthesis of harmonic components according to preset wave energy spectrum. Harmonic components of simulated waves are preset in turn at generation of waves by wave generator. These harmonic components are preset in random order in time at constant amplitude of oscillation of wave- generating body. EFFECT: improved quality of experiments due to generation of irregular waves of considerable duration through simplification of control of wave generator; reduced labor consumption. 2 dwg
