Isogeometric Finite Element Modelling of Ideal Non-Linear Free-Surface Flows: Towards total energy conservation

Delft University of Technology has access to a towing tank where a wave maker can generate waves. When generating waves, non-linear start-up effects occur at the start of a wave train which affect the rest of the signal.<br/> The aim of this thesis is to develop a model which can take these effects into account. A numerical modelling approach is...
